Lean ground beef is the main ingredient in these grilled cheeseburger wraps. Lean ground beef replaces other fatty ingredients to give the tortillas a cheeseburger flavor. Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, and onion powder give the ground beef mixture additional flavors. Cheddar cheese adds a melt-in-your-mouth element to the wrap.
I like using a flour tortilla and typical hamburger ingredients to create a meal that can be eaten by hand and doesn't easily break apart, with beef as the main ingredient and other ingredients and sauces to add flavor reminiscent of hamburger. The meal is appropriate for lunch or dinner.
The cheddar cheese is layered with the beef in the tortilla. Both the cheddar cheese and other tortilla fillings are in direct contact while cooking. The tortilla also contains mustard and tomato slices layered with the beef for rolling. A large nonstick pan is suggested for cooking the beef because it involves fewer steps for crumbling and draining the meat.
These grilled cheeseburger tortilla wraps are a twist on a traditional cheeseburger with other wrapped ingredients. I add lettuce and red onions to the wraps after grilling and cut them diagonally in half to serve. Best served hot.
