Ingredients

01 1 pound ground beef (or substitute with ground turkey or plant-based alternative).
02 2 cups frozen tater tots.
03 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
04 1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese.
05 1/2 cup sour cream.
06 1/4 cup Taco Bell chipotle sauce (adjust to taste).
07 6 large flour tortilla wraps.
08 Salt and pepper to taste.
09 Optional toppings: diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, cilantro.

Instructions

Step 01

Preheat the oven and cook the tater tots according to the package instructions until they are golden and crispy.

Step 02

In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Once fully cooked, drain any excess grease.

Step 03

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked ground beef, crispy tater tots (slightly crushed), shredded cheddar cheese, and shredded monterey jack cheese. Mix until well combined.

Step 04

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for about 10-15 seconds to make them pliable.

Step 05

Spoon a generous portion of the filling onto the center of each tortilla. Drizzle a spoonful of Taco Bell chipotle sauce over the filling. Add a dollop of sour cream.

Step 06

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and then fold the bottom up, rolling tightly to form a burrito.

Step 07

Place the burritos in a baking dish and sprinkle additional shredded cheese on top. Bake in the oven for a few minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 08

Remove the burritos from the oven. Garnish with diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, and cilantro if desired. Serve hot with extra sour cream and chipotle sauce on the side.

Notes

  1. For a spicier kick, add some jalapeƱos to the filling before rolling the burritos.
