Description

A crispy, golden tortilla folded into layers and filled with seasoned ground beef, melted cheddar cheese, fresh lettuce, juicy tomatoes, and creamy sour cream. This wrap delivers the perfect balance of crunch, savory richness, and fresh texture in every bite.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large flour tortillas, about 10 inches each
  • 1 pound ground beef, 80 percent lean
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup diced fresh tomatoes
  • 1 cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook for 6 to 8 minutes until browned. Drain excess fat. Stir in taco seasoning and 2 tablespoons of water. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until slightly thickened.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Wipe out the skillet or use a clean nonstick pan. Heat over medium heat for toasting.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Lay one tortilla flat and cut from the center down to the edge. Spread sour cream on one quadrant. Add seasoned beef to the next quadrant. Sprinkle shredded cheddar on the third. Add shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes on the final quadrant. Fold each section over the next to form a layered triangle.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Place the folded wrap in the heated pan. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
  6. Finishing Touches: Let the wrap rest for 1 minute before slicing in half.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm while crisp on the outside and cheesy on the inside.

Notes

  • Do not overfill the tortilla to prevent tearing.
  • Cook on medium heat to avoid burning before the cheese melts.
  • Pat diced tomatoes dry if very juicy to prevent sogginess.
  • Shred cheese fresh for better melting texture.
