Instructions: Using a large colander, drain and rinse all vegetables. Mix the mixed vegetables, hominy, green beans, mushrooms, and cream of mushroom soup together

In a large bowl. Add spices to the mixture and mix thoroughly. Place this mixture in a greased 8 x 8 baking dish. Shred cheese, and place on top of mixture.

Place tater tots on top of cheese layer (you may need to work to fit them all on). Bake at 375 degrees F 15 - 20 minutes, or until tater tots crisp and brown at the top. Cool 3-5 minutes, then serve by cutting into squares.

NOTES :
*HOMINY is corn that has been soaked in lye; the process enlarges the kernel considerably. Grits are a fine cornmeal made from dry ground HOMINY.

**Tater Tots are small frozen potato puffs that have been fried, you can purchase
them at most grocery stores.

***If you are on a strict vegan diet, you may substitute 20 oz. of IMO imitation sour cream, or vegetarian mushroom soup for the cream of mushroom soup.
