If I had a photo, I would most certainly use it. That is... unless the photo I have sucks. For now, you'll just have to picture a big heaping helping of
1 teaspoon each Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 cup beef broth
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup cut frozen vegetables (your choice, I used carrots, parsnips and beets)
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 - 16 ounce bag frozen tater tots
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
In an oven proof skillet (cast iron is ideal) heat oil and cook onions until translucent; then add garlic and cook until fragrant about 45 seconds or so
Add in the ground beef, cook until almost done and season with salt and pepper
Mix in tomato paste then sprinkle in flour, cook out flour about a minute or so then stir in broth and Worcestershire sauce; mix well - add a little more broth if it’s too thick, but you don’t want it runny
Add in the frozen vegetables and parsley and mix well
Add the frozen tots on top
Bake in the oven 30-40 minutes then broil on high towards the last minute of cooking time until tots are a nice crispy golden color
