(This baking time seems awfully long for the potatoes to be on top and not burn. Maybe the frozen tater tots were mixed in before baking and since we seldom got tater tots at home because they were expensive and were served on their own as a special treat they just seemed to assume the importance of being on top to me. This was a casserole served by my BFF's mom when we had a sleepover. I thought they were rich to be able to serve this.)
