- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup chipotle sauce (adjust to taste)
- 6 large flour tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, cilantro
Instructions
- Preheat oven and bake tater tots according to package directions until golden and crispy. Lightly crush them once done.

- In a large bowl, mix cooked beef, crushed tater tots, shredded cheddar, and Monterey Jack cheese.
- Warm tortillas in a dry pan or microwave until soft and pliable.
- Spoon filling into the center of each tortilla. Add chipotle sauce and a dollop of sour cream.
- Fold in sides and roll tightly into burritos. Place seam-side down in a baking dish.
- Sprinkle extra cheese on top and bake at 350°F for 5–7 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
