After going to church on Easter, you're going to want to come home to something you can serve right away.  I'm here to help, of course!  

One of my most popular recipes is this Cheesy Ranch "Tot" Bake.  It's really simple to put together and is packed with deliciousness!  The first time I made this, I made it with ground turkey.  The second time I made it, I made it with mild sausage!  Both were yummy, but there was something REALLY special about the one with mild sausage!  If you like a bit more spice, go for a medium or hot sausage!  Live it up!

I'll post another breakfast recipe for you next week too, so you can have a variety of things in your slow cookers for your guests to choose from!

Cheesy Ranch "Tot" Bake

Ingredients:

1 lb. ground mild sausage, cooked
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. onion powder
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 cups cheese, shredded (I had mexican blend, but use whatever sounds good to you!)
32 oz. bag frozen tator tots
1 can condensed cheddar cheese soup
1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup milk
1 packet dry ranch dressing mix

Directions:

Spray your crock with non-stick spray.  Cook your ground sausage and line the bottom of your crock with it.  Sprinkle the onions on top of that.  Layer on your cheese. Dump the tator tops on top of that.  Mix together the cream of chicken soup, cheddar cheese soup, onion powder, milk and ranch, then pour that over the top of the tator tots and spread evenly.  

Cook on LOW for 7-9 hours or on HIGH for 4-6 hours.  Enjoy!
