Description

This Crunchy Beef Tortilla Folded Wrap features seasoned ground beef, melted cheese, and crunchy tortilla chips all folded into a warm flour tortilla, then pan-toasted to golden perfection. It’s an easy and delicious Tex-Mex inspired meal perfect for lunch or dinner that combines great flavors and textures into a satisfying handheld wrap.


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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Fold the tortillas: Fold each tortilla into thirds to form a triangle shape, enclosing the filling securely inside for a neat wrap.
  4. 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.
