Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20 or lean)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch, or whole wheat)
  • 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or chopped American cheese slices)
  • 1/2 cup dill pickle slices, thin
  • 1/4 cup finely diced onion (yellow or white)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 2 tbsp sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1 tsp white vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, sweet pickle relish, yellow mustard, white vinegar, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Add salt and pepper to taste. Cover and chill in the fridge for at least 10 minutes.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and break up with a spatula. Sprinkle in garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring often, until browned and no longer pink. Drain excess fat if needed.
  3. While beef cooks, shred lettuce, dice onion, slice pickles, and shred or chop cheese. Keep veggies cold until ready to assemble.
  4. Warm tortillas one at a time in a dry skillet over medium heat for 10-20 seconds per side until pliable. Stack in a clean towel to keep warm.
  5. Lay out each tortilla. Spread 1-2 tbsp of special sauce down the center. Top with a scoop of cooked beef, then lettuce, cheese, pickles, and diced onion. Roll tightly, folding in the sides as you go.
  6. Optional: Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high. Place wraps seam-side down and toast for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.
  7. Slice wraps in half and serve warm, with extra sauce for dipping.

Notes

Don’t overcook the beef—turn off the heat as soon as it’s browned. Taste and adjust the sauce before spreading. Warm tortillas to prevent cracking. Don’t overfill wraps for easier rolling. Toasting the wraps adds great texture. For gluten-free or dairy-free, use suitable tortillas and cheese. The sauce can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for deeper flavor.
