Ingredients
  

For the Filling

  • 3 cups Tater Tots frozen for convenience

Instructions
 

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven as directed on your tater tots package. Bake them until crispy, usually around 20 minutes.
  • In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef, seasoning it with salt and pepper. Drain any excess grease.
  • In a large bowl, combine the browned beef, crushed tater tots, and both cheeses. Mix well to create a filling.
  • Warm tortillas in the microwave briefly to soften them.
  • Spoon a generous portion of the cheesy mixture into each tortilla. Drizzle with chipotle sauce and add sour cream before rolling tightly.
  • Place the burritos seam-side down in a baking dish. Top with extra cheese and bake until the cheese is bubbly, about 15 minutes.
  • Garnish with fresh toppings like diced tomatoes, green onions, and cilantro. Serve with extra sour cream and chipotle sauce.

Notes

Optional: Serve with a sprinkle of lime juice for a zesty twist. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
