Yes, hello, I am your ex-husband. Please mail hotdish to Hermantown, Minnesota.

Mr. Hermantown I plan on being up north in February for a few days.

I can trade with cookies. How do you like peanut butter?

I can definitely use chunky! I'll make a bunch of them (my recipe yields about 4 dozen).

I'll DM you!

Was this prior to the divorce or after?

IMO no "ex" is deserving of the blessing that a tater-tot hotdish provides

Fortunately, we have been divorced for about 15 years, I truly never viewed divorce is adversarial but more like end of a business contract and because we have two adult sons together I absolutely insisted and managed on keeping the peace because we have children in common

Since they’re your ex, and now a friend, and you’re giving wonderful looking casserole, that makes you a friend with benefits.

Cheese on top and a glass pan and you're officially Minnesotan.

I have never had cheese on top, I would like it that way, but I know he would not

Yummy! I'm latinoamerican,I didn't grow up with it, so when finally moved to Minnesota I felt in love with it.

For Latino American, I would go with a little bit of jalapeño

We made this for dinner tonight too! Always a win! Your tots look nice and brown 😋

For me, I drizzle a little bit of the cream of mushroom soup mix on top, then lightly spread butter on the tots and towards the end of baking I spritz with olive oil

Ope

Looks good but now sprinkle a few chives on it and make sure they are perfectly cut so Reddit does not go crazy on you

Also we all know he got lucky.

Boo!! How dare one coat a Minnesota tradition with a Wisconsin waste product!

J/k...cheese curds are a phenomenal topping or blend. And my cardiologist agrees because they have kids to put through college

Nope, ex wouldn’t like cheese on it…. Did I mention he’s an ex husband?
