Directions
- Bake the Tater Tots:
Preheat your oven and cook the tater tots according to the package instructions until golden and crispy. Slightly crushing them after baking helps them mix evenly into the filling. - Cook the Beef:
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Season with salt and pepper, then drain any excess grease once fully cooked. - Mix the Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked beef, crispy tater tots, shredded cheddar, and Monterey Jack cheese. Mix until well combined for a rich, cheesy, and hearty filling. - Warm the Tortillas:
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 10–15 seconds. This makes them more pliable and easier to fold without cracking. - Assemble the Burritos:
Spoon a generous portion of the filling onto the center of each tortilla. Drizzle with chipotle sauce and add a dollop of sour cream. Fold the sides over the filling, then roll the bottom up to form a tight burrito. - Bake to Melt the Cheese:
Place the rolled burritos seam-side down in a baking dish. Sprinkle additional cheese on top and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. - Garnish & Serve:
Remove from the oven and garnish with diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, and cilantro if desired. Serve hot with extra sour cream and chipotle sauce on the side.
