Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
For the taco beef:
1 lb ground beef
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/8 tsp ground cayenne pepper
Salt and pepper, to taste
For the wraps:
6 large flour tortillas (about 10 inches wide; corn tortillas can be used but flour works best)
1.5 cups shredded lettuce
1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered (or diced regular tomatoes)
1/2 cup sour cream
2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
18 tortilla chips (or as desired)
Directions
-
Prepare the taco beef: In a frying pan over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess fat if needed. Stir in chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and cayenne. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
-
Prepare the tortilla: Lay a tortilla on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut from the center of the tortilla down to the bottom edge.
-
Assemble the wrap:
-
Bottom left quarter: shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes.
-
Top left quarter: sour cream and tortilla chips.
-
Top right quarter: shredded cheese and taco beef.
-
Bottom right quarter: shredded cheese only.
-
-
Fold the wrap: Start with the bottom left quarter and fold over the top left. Then fold to the top right, and finally down to the bottom right to form a triangle.
-
Grill the wrap: Heat a skillet or panini press over medium heat. Place the wrap seam-side down and cook for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden and crispy, and cheese is melted.
-
Serve warm and enjoy immediately.

FAQs
1. Can I make this wrap ahead of time?
Yes, you can assemble and store it in the fridge, but it’s best grilled fresh to keep it crispy.
2. Can I use corn tortillas instead of flour?
Yes, but they’re more prone to cracking. Flour tortillas fold more easily.
3. How do I keep the fillings from spilling out?
Don’t overfill each section and press gently while folding.
4. Can I make it gluten-free?
Yes, just use large gluten-free tortillas.
5. What cheese works best?
A Mexican blend melts well, but cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack also work.
6. Can I bake the wrap instead of grilling?
Yes, bake at 375°F for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway for even crispness.
7. Can I use chicken instead of beef?
Absolutely—shredded rotisserie chicken with taco seasoning works great.
8. How do I make it spicier?
Add extra cayenne pepper, jalapeños, or hot sauce.
9. Can I make mini versions for snacks?
Yes, use smaller tortillas and adjust the filling amounts.
10. Can I add rice or beans?
Yes, just keep the layers balanced so the wrap still folds well.
