Hotdish recipes are popular in the Upper Midwest. They are casseroles cooked in a single dish and popular at potluck dinners. Barbara's version is perfectly seasoned and fantastic. We love the bits of sweet corn throughout and the crispy tater tots on top. This dish is going to go fast when served. It's a delicious stick to your ribs family dinner.
