How to Make Homemade Big Mac Wraps

Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground beef (85/15 or 90/10)
• 4 large flour tortillas (burrito size)
• 1 cup shredded lettuce
• 1/2 cup diced white onion
• 1/2 cup dill pickle slices
• 4 slices cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon cooking oil or butter
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 cup Big Mac sauce (homemade or store-bought)

Directions:

1. In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Break it into crumbles and cook until browned. Drain excess grease and set aside.
2. If making homemade sauce, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, relish, vinegar, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste.
3. Warm the flour tortillas in a skillet or microwave for a few seconds until soft and pliable.
4. Assemble each wrap: Start with lettuce, onion, beef, a slice of cheddar cheese, pickles, and a drizzle of Big Mac sauce.
5. Fold the tortilla like a burrito by tucking in the sides and rolling tightly.
6. Heat oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Toast each wrap seam-side down for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.
7. Slice in half and serve hot with extra sauce on the side.

How to Serve Homemade Big Mac Wraps

Serve your Homemade Big Mac Wraps warm, with extra Big Mac sauce on the side for dipping. These wraps pair well with a side of fries or a fresh salad. You can also offer some additional toppings like extra pickles or onion to customize each wrap to personal taste.

How to Store Homemade Big Mac Wraps

If you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, simply warm them in a skillet on low heat until heated through. You can also pop them in the microwave, but they might lose some of their crispiness.
