If you're craving some good old fashioned comfort food, this Cheesy Ham & Broccoli Tater Tot Casserole is sure to satisfy and makes for a tasty dinner.
Bake tater tots on baking sheet according to package instructions.
While tater tots are cooking in the oven, saute onions in butter in 8 quart pot over high heat. As soon as the first onions start to turn golden, add the diced ham. Let the onion and ham cook in the butter for about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the onion mixture and stir. Allow flour to cook for a couple of minutes, then add the milk, garlic powder, mustard powder, salt & pepper. Stir with a wooden spoon, removing any bits that may have stuck to the bottom of the pan.
Continue to cook and stir the milk gravy until it thickens, about 5 minutes. Add the broccoli and 2 cups of the cheese, reserving the remaining 1 cup. Transfer the tater tots to a 9x13 baking dish and pour the ham and broccoli mixture over the tots.
Sprinkle remaining cheddar cheese on top.
Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 20-25 minutes until melted and bubbly. Serve hot. YUM!
