Ingredients
Scale

- 1 packet taco seasoning (or 2 Tbsp homemade)
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 cups frozen tater tots
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil (optional for extra crisp)

- 1 tbsp butter (or cooking spray)
Instructions
- Cook beef: Brown ground beef in a skillet; drain grease. Add taco seasoning + water and simmer 5 minutes.
- Warm wraps: Warm tortillas 20–30 seconds so they roll without tearing.
- Build burrito: Spread sour cream, add beef, add 5–6 tots, sprinkle both cheeses, drizzle chipotle sauce, add green onions.
- Roll tight: Fold sides in, fold bottom up, roll tightly seam-side down.
- Grill: Butter/spray outside; grill 2–3 minutes per side until crisp and golden, pressing lightly to seal.
- Serve: Slice diagonally and serve hot with extra sour cream or salsa.
Notes
- Adjust seasoning to your taste.
- For a spicier kick, add more chipotle sauce.
