Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter

Optional Add-ins

  • Sautéed onions
  • Sliced jalapeños
  • Bell peppers
  • Salsa

Instructions

  1. Cook the Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Once fully cooked, drain the excess fat to reduce greasiness.
  2. Add Seasoning: Add the taco seasoning packet and 1/4 cup water to the skillet. Stir well and let it simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until the mixture thickens and the flavors meld together.
  3. Warm the Tortillas: Slightly warm the flour tortillas in a skillet or microwave to make them pliable and prevent cracking during rolling.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Lay each tortilla flat. Spoon the seasoned beef into the center of each, then sprinkle evenly with shredded cheddar cheese. Add any optional sautéed onions, jalapeños, bell peppers, or a spoonful of salsa if desired.
  5. Roll the Wraps: Fold in the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom up into a burrito-style wrap to secure the contents.
  6. Toast the Wraps: Heat olive oil or butter in a clean skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and toast for 2 to 3 minutes per side until they turn golden brown and crisp.
  7. Rest and Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet and let them rest for 1 minute to cool slightly and help them hold together. Slice if desired and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef to reduce fat content.
  • Warm tortillas well to avoid cracking while rolling.
  • Customize with your favorite vegetables or salsa for added flavor and nutrition.
  • For a spicier wrap, add extra jalapeños or hot sauce.
  • Leftover wraps can be wrapped tightly in foil and reheated in an oven or skillet to maintain crispiness.
