🧾 Ingredients

For the Wraps:

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20 or lean)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4–6 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or American cheese
  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • ½ cup dill pickles, chopped or sliced
  • ½ cup diced onion (white or yellow)
  • Optional: sesame seeds for garnish (to mimic that sesame bun feel!)

For the Big Mac Special Sauce:

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika

👩‍🍳 Instructions

🔸 Step 1: Make the Special Sauce

  1. In a small bowl, mix together mayo, ketchup, mustard, relish, vinegar, and spices until smooth.
  2. Chill in the fridge while you prepare the rest — it tastes best cold!

🔸 Step 2: Cook the Beef

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  2. Break it up into crumbles and cook until fully done (6–8 minutes). Drain excess grease if needed.

🔸 Step 3: Assemble the Wraps

  1. Warm tortillas for 15–20 seconds in the microwave or on a skillet for easier folding.
  2. Layer the center of each tortilla with:
    • A scoop of cooked beef
    • Cheddar cheese
    • Lettuce, onions, pickles
    • A generous drizzle of special sauce

🔸 Step 4: Fold & Toast

  1. Fold burrito-style or like a crunchwrap: fold the edges over the filling to form a sealed circle.
  2. Place seam-side down on a skillet over medium heat and toast for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.

🥒 Serve With:

  • Oven fries or sweet potato wedges
  • Extra pickles or special sauce on the side
  • Chopped salad for a lighter plate

❄️ Storage Tips:

  • Fridge: Store cooked wraps in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat: Toast on skillet or air fry at 350°F for 5 minutes.
  • Freezer: Freeze assembled but un-toasted wraps for up to 1 month — toast straight from frozen!

❓ FAQs

Can I make it low-carb?
Yes! Use low-carb wraps or wrap in lettuce leaves.

What’s the best cheese to use?
Shredded cheddar, American cheese slices, or even mozzarella if you prefer a lighter option.

Can I prep this ahead?
Absolutely! Cook the beef and make the sauce ahead — then just assemble and toast when ready.
