In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef with the chopped onion and green bell pepper. Cook until the beef is fully cooked and crumbly, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease if needed. Stir in the tomato sauce, ketchup, tomato paste, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, salt, sugar, oregano, and pepper. Mix well to combine. Reduce heat and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes. If using a cast-iron skillet, arrange the frozen tater tots in a single layer directly on top of the sloppy joe mixture. Otherwise, transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish and top evenly with the tater tots. Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden brown and crispy. Serve hot and enjoy a cozy, family-friendly week-night dinner. #FamilyDinner #WeeknightDinner# SloppyJoeCasserole #TaterTotCasserole #EasyDinner #ComfortFood ****Links to my favorite things**** 🧤Oven gloves I use (affiliate link): https://amzn.to/3PesyCv 👕 My MERCH is here: http://tee.pub/lic/zCPUJ9t3EZk 🥣 Visit my website at http://www.AdventuresinEverydayCooking.com 💞My Patreon https://www.patreon.com/adventuresineverydaycooking 🔪My Pampered Chef website https://www.PamperedChef.com/pws/AECHeather/ 🖥️Find me on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/AdventuresinEverydayCooking 🐤Follow me on Twitter at https://twitter.com/AECHeather 📸Follow me on Instagram at @AdventuresinEverydayCooking
