How to Make Grilled Cheeseburger Wraps:

1. Prepare the Filling:
   • In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with the diced onion and minced garlic until the beef is browned and the onion is softened.
   • Drain any excess fat. Stir in the ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until well combined.
   • Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted. If using, mix in the diced pickles, shredded lettuce, and diced tomato.
2. Assemble the Wraps:
   • Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a portion of the cheeseburger filling onto the center of the tortilla.
   • Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up from the bottom to enclose the filling, making sure it’s tightly wrapped.
3. Grill the Wraps:
   • Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat and brush with vegetable oil.
   • Place the wraps seam-side down and grill for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
4. Serve and Enjoy:
   • Slice the wraps in half and serve warm. They’re great with your favorite dipping sauces or a side of fries.

Tips:

• Even Heating: Ensure the wraps are grilled evenly by pressing them down slightly with a spatula.
• For Extra Crispiness: You can also use a panini press if you have one for an extra crispy finish.

Substitutions and Variations:

• Cheese Options: Try using different cheeses like American, Swiss, or pepper jack for a twist.
• Vegetarian: Substitute the ground beef with black beans or a veggie burger patty for a vegetarian version.
• Additions: Customize with additional toppings like sautéed mushrooms, bacon, or avocado slices.

Make a Healthier Version:

• Lean Meat: Use lean ground turkey or chicken instead of beef.
• Low-Fat Cheese: Opt for low-fat cheese to reduce the calorie content.
• Whole Wheat Tortillas: Use whole wheat tortillas for added fiber and nutrients.
