01of 22Spinach, Feta & Artichoke Tater Tot CasserolePhotographer: Fred Hardy, Food Stylist: Jennifer Wendorf, Prop Stylist: Lydia PurcellThis egg-based dinner casserole is assembled and baked in a single baking dish, making prep (and cleanup!) a breeze. Potato tots nestled on top add a crispy, golden crust. Be sure to squeeze as much moisture as you can from the frozen artichoke hearts and spinach to prevent the casserole from becoming soggy.
