Cheeseburger Wrap (Printable Version)
Melty cheddar and seasoned beef with crisp lettuce and tomato wrapped in warm tortillas for an easy handheld meal.
# What You'll Need:
→ Meat
01 - 14 oz ground beef (80/20 blend recommended)
→ Vegetables
02 - 1 small red onion, finely chopped
03 - 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
04 - 1 medium tomato, diced
05 - 2 pickles, sliced
→ Dairy
06 - 4 slices cheddar cheese
→ Pantry Staples
07 - 4 large flour tortillas (10 inch)
08 - 2 tablespoons ketchup
09 - 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
10 - 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
11 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
12 - Salt and pepper, to taste
# How to Make It:
01 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and chopped onion. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 6 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
02 - Drain excess fat from the skillet if necessary. Stir in the ketchup and mustard, mixing until well combined and heated through.
03 - Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Place one slice of cheddar cheese in the center of each tortilla. Top each with a quarter of the beef mixture, shredded lettuce, diced tomato, and pickle slices.
04 - Drizzle each wrap with mayonnaise over the assembled filling.
05 - Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll up tightly from the bottom to fully enclose the filling.
06 - Wipe the skillet clean and return to medium heat. Place each wrap seam-side down and grill for 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden and crisp.
07 - Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- Everything you crave about a cheeseburger packed into something you can hold in one hand while scrolling your phone with the other.
- The optional skillet crisping step turns an already great wrap into something genuinely irresistible with a golden shell.
02 -
- Do not skip draining the excess fat or your wraps will turn soggy and start unraveling before you finish eating.
- Letting the assembled wraps rest seam side down for thirty seconds before grilling helps them seal shut naturally.
03 -
- Cook the beef a little extra so it develops crispy edges that mimic the char of a grilled burger patty.
- Mix the ketchup and mustard together before adding them to the pan so the sauce blends evenly without hot spots of either condiment.
