I am limited on time here right now before needing to leave, but could you
possibly use the meatballs instead of ground beef and make a tater tot
casserole? I could look up tater tot casserole later for you, but bet that
would work; my way of thinking is if you put all that in slow cooker with
soups, the tots would be all yucky and soggy. 


Courage is fear that has said its prayers!

Nope this person comes once every two weeks and I am too broke right now to
go to the store so I figure I would use what I have.
