These Big Mac wraps take 25 minutes or less to prepare and feature seasoned ground beef tucked into flour tortillas with burger toppings and a quick sauce. I prepare these Big Mac wraps rather than burgers on days when I crave a Big Mac but don't want to prepare beef patties. Beef stays in small, browned pieces.
I cook lean ground beef in a big pan over medium-high heat until browned, then add other seasonings. To make it brown, increase the heat. Drain off fat before adding other seasonings and stir thoroughly to make sure small pieces of beef are evenly coated with other seasonings.
Whip the sauce. Set aside to make while beef is preparing. Leave room around all taco ingredients on the board when building tacos so you can fold the tortilla. Consider using toothpicks to secure fully wrapped tacos that don't easily close. Add sauce to fully assembled tacos last to prevent messiness from excess sauce. Adding lettuce can help keep the beef warm.
I add tomatoes, which are not included in a Big Mac, for flavor in my wrap. Freshly shredded cheddar cheese is my favorite cheese option, but packaged cheese can be used if cheddar cheese is not available. My favorite type of onion to use is white onion, but yellow or red onions can be used instead. Spinach can be used instead of iceberg lettuce if spinach is available.
