# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Set the oven to 400°F and allow it to preheat fully.
02 -
Wash and peel the russet potatoes thoroughly, removing any blemishes.
03 -
Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes for even cooking.
04 -
Arrange potato cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Toss to evenly coat.
05 -
Bake potatoes in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring halfway, until golden and tender.
06 -
While potatoes roast, shred cheddar cheese if needed and chop green onions.
07 -
Once potatoes are roasted and slightly cooled, combine them in a medium bowl with shredded cheddar, sour cream, and green onions. Stir gently to incorporate.
08 -
Heat flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 10–20 seconds per side, or microwave wrapped in a damp towel for 20–30 seconds until soft.
09 -
On a clean surface, lay out each tortilla. Divide the cheesy potato filling evenly among them, placing mixture in the center. Fold in sides, then roll tightly to enclose the filling.
