If you like Beanie Weenies, you are going to love my Beanie Weenie Tater Tot Casserole recipe!
My youngest son says this is the best casserole I have ever created. I do not agree with him on this, but I can attest to the fact that this tater tot casserole recipe is a hit with kids of all ages!
I created this recipe when I found myself with leftover baked beans and barbecued hotdogs after a weekend party. I decided that instead of just making Beanie Weenies, I would up my game and turn it into a casserole by layering tater tots and cheese on top. I was surprised by how well it was received by the whole family. My husband likes this casserole so much, that he has made a habit of making extra hot dogs when he barbecues so I will have leftovers to use in this casserole.
You do not need to use leftover hot dogs to make this casserole, but don’t tell my husband.
A note on cutting hot dogs:
Don’t slice the hot dogs into round “coins” as this can create a choking hazard. I cut the hot dogs in half length-wise, then cut each long piece into half length-wise. This creates 4 long strips. Then dice the strips into small bite-size pieces. This is not only safer, but it also more evenly distributes the meat throughout the casserole.
