This dish is a favorite of my family's. It sounds awful and even looks that way, but it is very tasty as well as having a bit of your veggies. My kids don't know that it's better for them than a cheeseburger!

Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
6 potatoes, peeled and shredded
1 (8 ounce) package processed cheese, melted
2 (10 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with green chile peppers, drained
1 (8 ounce) can sweet peas, drained
1 (8.75 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
12 (8 inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Cook the shredded potatoes until golden brown on both sides. In a small bowl combine the melted processed cheese with the diced tomatoes with chiles.
  • Stir in half of the peas and half of the corn, and mash them into the hash browns. When well combined, add the remaining peas and corn; continue mashing to combine. Stir in about 1 cup of the cheese and tomato mixture and mix well. Cook for 10 minutes, or until heated through.
  • Spoon the potato mixture into the tortillas and roll like a burrito. Smother with cheese/tomato mixture.
