  2. Veggie Packed: Incorporate more vegetables like bell peppers and mushrooms for a healthier twist.
  3. Spicy Kick: Add diced jalapeños or chili flakes to the meat mixture for those who enjoy a bit of heat.
  4. Go Greek: Use ground lamb instead of beef and add some feta cheese for a Mediterranean version.
  5. Breakfast Casserole: Substitute sausage for ground beef and add a layer of scrambled eggs beneath the tater tots for a breakfast twist.
