Instructions
Cook the fries: Bake or air-fry the French fries according to package instructions until golden and crispy.
Cook the beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned. Drain excess grease. Stir in taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 5 minutes until thickened.
Warm the tortillas: Heat tortillas in a dry pan or microwave until soft and pliable.
Assemble burritos: Lay each tortilla flat. In the center, layer fries, taco beef, shredded cheese, nacho cheese sauce (if using), tomatoes, onions, lettuce, and sour cream.
Wrap it up: Fold in the sides and roll up tightly to form burritos. Optional: toast in a skillet seam-side down for a crispy exterior.
Serve: Slice in half and enjoy warm with extra toppings or dipping sauce.
