# Steps:
01 -
Preheat the oven and cook the tater tots according to the package instructions until golden and crispy.
02 -
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Season with salt and pepper. Once fully cooked, drain any excess grease.
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.
04 -
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for about 10-15 seconds to make them pliable.
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 and add a dollop of sour cream.
06 -
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then fold the bottom up and roll tightly to form a burrito.
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.
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.
# Tips:
01 -
Warming the tortillas prevents cracking during assembly.
02 -
Substituting ground beef with ground turkey or a plant-based alternative offers a different flavor or dietary adaptation.
