Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 13x9-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

Spread 20 potato nuggets in the casserole dish.

Step 3

Bake in preheated oven until warmed through, about 10 minutes.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef and onion in the hot skillet until beef is completely browned, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Season beef mixture with 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, steak seasoning, garlic powder, and black pepper.

Step 5

Stir cream of mushroom soup, milk, 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce together in a bowl.

Bake in preheated oven until casserole is bubbly and potatoes golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes.
