    Is there a real link for this? I’ll donate to get the recipe. Not sure what a hot dish is but I donate anyways so may as well get something good.

      Hot dish is a version of casserole that is highly cherished in Minnesota (particularly tater tot hot dish)

        If it’s got tater tots in it, it is NOT hot dish. Hot dish has noodles. Tots is a casserole thing.

        The key ingredient is cream of mushroom soup. It’s not hot dish unless there’s cream of mushroom soup

          Here’s Tim Walz’s Tater Tot Hot Dish recipe, but it’s not really the most traditional recipe (Walz’s recipe uses turkey instead of beef, doesn’t use canned cream of mushroom soup, and traditional tater tot hot dish doesn’t have much, if any, cheese)

          That said, it looks great and has a bunch of positive reviews online. My Minnesotan wife is pretty excited to try it.

    Classic Minnesota. People up there refer to ‘hot dish’ as if it is one thing, even though it’s really any type of casserole, and also act like each individual can only make one kind of ‘hot dish’. Example: “hey have you ever had my grandma’s hot dish?” or “my dad made his hot dish today, hell yeah”. In the latter example, his dad’s Hot Dish was onions and ground beef with a ton of soy sauce, served with chow mein noodles on top.

      I assume Tim Walz’s hot dish is way too spicy for most Minnesotans. I hear he puts three drops of Tabasco in it.

          They’re bought and paid for by the Harris campaign. They don’t want this sort of thing getting out there!

        People in northern Minnesota and Wisconsin believe that onion is too spicy for children. To be fair, they did have some crazy strong winter onions there.

      Think of hot dishes like how the south uses coke to refer to pop. When you get asked if you’ve had someone’s hot dish, they’re either referring to the hot dish sitting in front of you or a secret recipe that stays in the family

    When a poor person sells the same thing to multiple people on Facebook they get arrested, but when a politician does it you people cheer. Absolutely appalling.
