Chili Tots

1 pound ground beef
2 cans chili
1 can tomato sauce
1 can sliced black olives
1 can chopped green chilies
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1-32 oz. package frozen tater tots

In large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in chili, tomato sauce, olives, and chilies. Transfer to two greased 8 in. square baking dishes. Sprinkle with cheese; top with tots.
Cover and freeze one casserole for up to 3 months. Cover and bake the remaining casserole at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until heated through. I uncovered mine at the end and let it bake a little longer to brown the tots.
To use frozen casserole: Remover from freezer 30 minutes before baking (do not thaw). Cover and bake at 350 for 1 and 1/2 hours or until heated through. Yield: 2 casseroles (6 servings each).
