Ingredients:
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 lb ground beef
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup diced onions
- 1/4 cup diced pickles
- Ketchup and mustard (optional)
- Olive oil or cooking spray
Steps:
- Cook the Ground Beef:
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook the beef, breaking it apart with a spatula, until it is browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
- Prepare the Tortillas:
Heat a separate skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly brush each tortilla with olive oil or spray with cooking spray. Place a tortilla on the skillet and warm it for about 30 seconds on each side until it becomes pliable.
- Assemble the Wraps:
Divide the cooked ground beef evenly among the tortillas, spreading it out in the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the ground beef on each tortilla. Top the cheese with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced onions, and diced pickles. If desired, drizzle ketchup and mustard over the toppings.
- Wrap the Ingredients:
Fold the sides of each tortilla inward, then roll up tightly from the bottom to create a wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling ingredients.
- Grill the Wraps:
Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down on the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy. Press down lightly on the wraps with a spatula while cooking to help seal them shut and melt the cheese.
- Serve:
Remove the wraps from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Slice each wrap in half diagonally, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
Variation:
- Add cooked bacon slices or avocado slices for extra flavor and texture.
- Substitute ground turkey or ground chicken for the ground beef for a lighter option.
- Experiment with different cheese varieties such as pepper jack or Swiss.
Tips:
- Make sure to drain any excess fat from the cooked ground beef to prevent the wraps from becoming soggy.
- Customize the wraps with your favorite burger toppings and condiments.
- Serve the wraps with a side of fries, potato chips, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
