Ingredients
Scale
Beef Mixture
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
Cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Wraps
- 4 large flour tortillas
Creamy Sauce
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Garnishes (Optional)
- Chopped lettuce
- Diced tomatoes
Instructions
- Sauté the Beef: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened and fragrant, about 2–3 minutes.
- Cook the Ground Beef: Add ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked through. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
- Season the Beef: Sprinkle paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper over the cooked beef. Stir well to evenly distribute the spices, then remove the skillet from heat.
- Make the Creamy Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, ketchup, and Dijon mustard until smooth and creamy.
- Warm the Tortillas: Heat each flour tortilla in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds until soft and pliable, making them easier to fold.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay a warm tortilla flat and spoon a portion of the seasoned ground beef mixture in the center. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top, then drizzle with the creamy sauce. Add lettuce and diced tomatoes if using.
- Wrap and Serve: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll tightly into a wrap. Serve immediately while warm and enjoy!
Notes
- You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or hot sauce to the beef.
- To make this wrap gluten-free, use gluten-free tortillas instead of flour tortillas.
- The creamy sauce can be altered to taste by adding herbs like parsley or chives.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in a skillet or microwave.
