Ingredients

Scale

Beef Mixture

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

Cheese

  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese

Wraps & Toppings

  • 4 large soft flour tortillas
  • Sour cream or Greek yogurt (optional, for topping)
  • Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
  • Optional: sliced avocado, diced tomatoes for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Beef Mixture: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula until browned. Add the diced onions, garlic, and bell peppers. Stir in chili powder, cumin, and smoked paprika. Cook until beef is fully cooked and vegetables are softened.
  2. Add the Cheese: Reduce heat to medium. Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the beef mixture. Cover the skillet briefly to melt the cheese fully, binding everything together into a creamy filling.
  3. Warm the Tortillas: While the cheese melts, warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable to prevent tearing when wrapping.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Spoon a generous amount of the cheesy beef filling into the center of each tortilla. Add optional toppings like sour cream, fresh herbs, or avocado slices. Fold the sides tightly over the filling and roll up to enclose neatly.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Cut wraps in half if desired, arrange on plates, and serve warm for a comforting, flavorful meal.

Notes

  • Use lean beef to reduce grease without sacrificing flavor.
  • Don’t overfill the tortillas to avoid tearing while wrapping.
  • Cover skillet when melting cheese for faster, even melt and cohesive filling.
  • Warm tortillas just enough to make them pliable—not crispy—to prevent cracks.
  • Prepare all ingredients before cooking to keep the process smooth and stress-free.
