Quick and easy. Will make again when I need something that won't keep me in the kitchen all afternoon.

This was an easy tasty recipe which my kids loved! I did use tater tots with cheese instead of french fries. Thanks Trisha for a kid pleasing recipe.

This was a very good, kid friendly, family meal. I topped with potato gems and probably cooked slightly longer so they were nice and crunchy. This would be great with the addition of any vegetables (zucchini, peas etc) and I also think for a nice change BBQ sauce in place of the catsup would work out well. Thanks for posting a recipe I will make again.

The goal at my house is to get three out of five people fed with one recipe (between a vegetarian and food allergies, this is harder than it might seem). This recipe fit the bill, because everyone but my vegetarian ate it! I was a bit skeptical that my kids would eat it, but they did and asked for seconds. I used ground turkey, celery salt and onion powder (to avoid chunks of veggies my kids might complain over) and large crinkle cut fries. I think shredded cheese on top would be a great addition.

What an easy to make meal. I made this for friends who went home with the recipe :) I did not use the celery as I did not have any on hand. It still worked out great. I think that this base could also be topped with other toppings eg. Hash browns, other ready made potato products, mashed potato or even slices of french or garlic bread & maybe even topped with cheese. Served with a salad, an easy meal. Thanks so much for posting :)
