Tater Tot Chicken Casserole

last night I wanted to make something quick and easy too.. what I did was this.. I had some precooked chicken, I cut it in bite size chunks and put it in the bottom of a greased 8x13 inch pan, seasoned with garlic powder, salt and pepper, could use whatever seasonings you like, on top of that toss a 1 lb bag of frozen vegetables, next time I am going to use broccoli, I didnt like the carrots in mine. Anyways.. mix 1 can cream of chicken soup with 1/2 to 3/4 C sour cream and spread that over the veggies evenly. Over that layer grate a layer of cheese.Top with 1 32 ounce bag of tater tots/rounds frozen. pop in the oven for 45-55 minutes or until tater tots are browned and it is all hot all the way through my family RAVED about this one, I was SOO happy and will make again, so easy to throw together, Carm

We had a bbq tonight Yum! Hubby grilled the steaks and I made the potato salad and the guacamole. The guacamole I make is really easy, smash up some ripe avocados, dice some tomatoes and throw them in, then salt and lemon juice to taste. I dont use onion or salsa in mine, I like to taste the avocados

Grandmas Potato Salad

I dont really have a recipe for this, I kinda just do it by memory, I boil my potatoes, peel and dice them, add boiled eggs that have been cut up. Chopped Onion (I chop mine very fine so I dont get big pieces in any bites lol, I love the flavor but not a big chunk) Chopped celery. Then I add mayo and a few splashes of red wine vinegar, dont forget your salt and pepper. Top with paprika to make it puuurty and let it sit in the fridge for a few hours so flavors can meld <----did I use that right lol
