Ground Beef Tortilla Wraps
Ingredients (Serves 4)
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp cumin
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 8 flour tortillas

Instructions
- Cook the beef
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds.
Add ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess fat. - Season
Stir in chili powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook 1–2 minutes so spices bloom. - Warm tortillas
Heat tortillas in a pan or microwave until soft and flexible. - Assemble wraps
Spoon beef into tortillas, add cheese and toppings. - Wrap or toast (optional)
Roll up and serve as-is, or toast wraps in a pan for 1–2 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
Variations
- Cheesy beef wraps: Add cheese directly to the hot beef so it melts
- Tex-Mex style: Add taco seasoning and black beans or corn
- Mediterranean twist: Use cumin, garlic, and paprika; add yogurt sauce and cucumber
If you want, I can turn this into:
- a meal-prep version
- a baked crispy wrap
