Number Of Ingredients 6

5 large potatoes, peeled and chopped
¼ cup milk
1 cup chopped green onions
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 (12 ounce) package corn tortillas
1 cup Ranch-style salad dressing

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Drain potatoes and transfer to a large bowl. Pour in milk and mash until smooth. Stir in onions and cheese; mix well. Spoon 2 heaping tablespoons of potato mixture into the center of each tortilla and fold in half; secure with a toothpick.
