  • 2 cups frozen tater tots
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

  3. In a large bowl, mix together the cooked ground beef, crispy tater tots, cheddar cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese.
  4. Warm flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 10-15 seconds.
  5. Fill each tortilla with a generous amount of the beef and tater tot mixture, drizzling chipotle sauce and adding sour cream before folding and rolling.
