Description

Cheesy Ground Beef Delight Wrap with Creamy Sauce is a quick and satisfying meal featuring savory seasoned ground beef, melted cheddar cheese, and a tangy creamy sauce wrapped in soft flour tortillas. Perfect for a flavorful lunch or dinner, this recipe combines simple ingredients with straightforward cooking techniques to create a delicious handheld wrap that can be customized with fresh lettuce and tomatoes.

Ingredients

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 and Tortillas

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas

Creamy Sauce

  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Optional Garnishes

  • Chopped lettuce
  • Diced tomatoes

Instructions

  1. Sauté the Beef: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic and sauté until softened, approximately 2 to 3 minutes, allowing the flavors to develop.
  2. Cook the Ground Beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook it thoroughly, breaking it up with a spatula until browned and no longer pink. Drain any excess fat to keep the mixture from being greasy.
  3. Season the Beef: Sprinkle paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper over the cooked beef mixture. Stir thoroughly to combine the spices evenly throughout the meat, then remove the skillet from heat.
  4. Make the Creamy Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, ketchup, and Dijon mustard until smooth and creamy. This sauce adds a tangy and rich element to the wrap.
  5. Warm the Tortillas: Heat the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over low heat or microwave them briefly until they become soft and pliable, which makes them easier to wrap without cracking.
  6. Assemble the Wraps: Lay each tortilla flat and place a generous portion of the beef mixture in the center. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top, then drizzle with the creamy sauce. Add optional chopped lettuce and diced tomatoes if desired.
  7. Wrap and Serve: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll tightly to form a wrap. Serve immediately while warm for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • For a lower fat option, use lean ground beef, or substitute ground turkey or chicken.
  • Feel free to add hot sauce or chopped jalapeños to the creamy sauce for a spicy kick.
  • To save time, prepare the creamy sauce in advance and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Wraps can be wrapped in foil and refrigerated for a make-ahead meal but are best enjoyed fresh and warm.
  • Use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas to accommodate dietary restrictions.
