Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 pound (454 grams) ground beef
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) nacho cheese sauce
- 1 cup (100 grams) shredded cheddar cheese
Seasoning:
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix
Optional Toppings:
- Diced tomatoes
- Shredded lettuce
- Sliced jalapenos
- Sour cream
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium flame and crumble ground beef, cooking until thoroughly browned and no pink remains.
- Drain excess fat from the meat and incorporate taco seasoning, stirring to coat beef evenly and allowing flavors to meld for approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Microwave tortillas or gently warm in a dry skillet until they become soft and flexible, preventing potential cracking during wrapping.
- Lay out each tortilla and center a generous portion of seasoned beef slightly off the middle, creating space for easy folding.
- Distribute shredded cheddar cheese across the beef, ensuring even coverage for consistent melting.
- Drizzle nacho cheese sauce over the cheese layer, creating a rich and creamy foundation for the wrap.
- Add optional toppings like diced tomatoes, chopped lettuce, or sliced jalapeños for additional texture and flavor.
- Fold the tortilla’s sides inward, then roll tightly from the bottom, ensuring a compact and secure wrap.
- For a crispy exterior, place wraps seam-side down in a preheated skillet and grill for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Slice diagonally and serve immediately while warm and cheese remains melted.
Notes
- Switch to lean ground beef or turkey for a healthier protein option that reduces saturated fat intake.
- Experiment with whole wheat or low-carb tortillas to accommodate different dietary needs and boost nutritional value.
- Use homemade taco seasoning to control sodium levels and customize flavor profile without processed ingredients.
- Consider adding fresh vegetables like diced bell peppers or spinach for extra nutrients and crunch, making the wrap more balanced and colorful.
