Chances are, if you've at least driven through Minnesota (or the upper midwest in general) you've had a hotdish. Maybe at a church potluck, or your Grandmother's house, or even deep fried on a stick at the state fair.

Don't know what a hotdish is? Basically it's the perfect midwestern food. It usually consists of meat and some type of starch, and is what some might consider "bland". Usually it is held together with cans of Campbell's "Cream of ..." soup.
As a child I absolutely loved it when my mom made Tater Tot Hotdish, yet I just couldn't watch her make it because dumping that can shape blob of cream of mushroom soup onto the meat. That being said, I won't be using anything that retains the shape of the can you dump it out of, and like a good Minnesotan I won't be making this hotdish with beef, but with venison instead.
Ingredients
- Ground venison
- 1 Medium onion

- 4 Tbs Flour
- 1 can beef broth
- 1 Pint half and half
