Ingredients
For the Wraps:
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 or lean)
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp onion powder
- 1 cup shredded lettuce (iceberg or romaine)
- ¼ cup diced onion
- ¼ cup sliced dill pickles
- 4 slices American or cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas (or low-carb wraps)
For the Big Mac Sauce:
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp sweet pickle relish
- 1 tsp yellow mustard
- 1 tsp white vinegar
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp onion powder
- Pinch of paprika
Optional Add-ins:
- Sesame seeds
- Shredded cheddar
- Sliced jalapeños
Instructions
- Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef seasoned with salt, black pepper, and onion powder. Break the meat apart with a spatula and continue cooking until fully browned. Drain any excess fat to keep the wraps from becoming greasy.
- Make the Big Mac Sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, sweet pickle relish, yellow mustard, white vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of paprika until smooth. Set the sauce aside or refrigerate to allow flavors to meld.
- Warm the Tortillas: Gently heat the tortillas either by microwaving for 10 to 15 seconds or warming briefly in a dry skillet to increase pliability and prevent tearing during assembly.
- Assemble the Wraps: Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons of the prepared Big Mac sauce onto the center of each warm tortilla. Layer shredded lettuce, a slice of American or cheddar cheese, the cooked beef, diced onions, and pickle slices on top of the sauce. Roll each tortilla tightly like a burrito, making sure the filling is enclosed securely.
- Optional – Toast the Wraps: For extra texture and flavor, place the assembled wraps seam-side down on a hot dry skillet or sandwich press. Toast for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until the tortilla turns golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Slice the wraps in half diagonally and serve warm. Offer additional Big Mac sauce on the side for dipping if desired.
Notes
- You can substitute low-carb or whole wheat tortillas to make the wraps healthier.
- Drain excess fat from the beef to avoid sogginess and excess grease in the wrap.
- Feel free to add sliced jalapeños or extra shredded cheddar for a spicier and cheesier version.
- The Big Mac sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to a week.
- To prevent tortillas from tearing, warm them before assembling the wraps.
