Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
- 1 cup crushed tortilla chips
Instructions
- Brown the beef: In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Drain excess grease thoroughly to prevent sogginess.
- Assemble the wraps: Lay out the flour tortillas and evenly distribute the cooked beef, shredded cheese, and crushed tortilla chips onto the center of each tortilla, creating a layered filling.
- Fold the tortillas: Fold each tortilla into thirds to form a triangle shape, enclosing the filling securely inside for a neat wrap.
- Pan-toast the wraps: Heat a clean non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place each folded wrap seam-side down and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy and the cheese has melted inside.
Notes
- Add fresh lettuce or salsa after heating for extra freshness and flavor.
- Use your favorite shredded cheese blend for variation.
- For a spicier kick, add jalapeños or hot sauce inside before folding.
- Make sure to drain the beef well to keep the wraps crispy.
