How to Make Ground Beef Tortilla Wraps
Step 1: Cook the Beef Mixture
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain excess grease if needed.
Add the chopped onion and cook for another 2–3 minutes until softened. Stir in garlic, taco seasoning, and tomato sauce. Let it simmer for 5 minutes until the mixture is thick and flavorful.
Step 2: Warm the Tortillas
Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave them for about 10–15 seconds to make them pliable and easy to wrap.
Step 3: Assemble the Wraps
Spoon the beef mixture into the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and add your favorite toppings.
Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll them up tightly like a burrito.
Step 4: Optional—Toast or Bake
For a crispy finish, toast the wraps in a skillet until golden on both sides, or bake at 375°F for 10 minutes.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Slice the wraps in half if desired and serve warm with chips, salsa, or a fresh salad.
