Cheeseburger Wrap
Craving a cheeseburger but don’t want the bun? These cheeseburger wraps hit the spot. You get everything you love in a classic cheeseburger—beef, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and sauce—but it’s all tucked into a soft tortilla that’s easy to eat and perfect for a weeknight meal. It’s like your favorite fast food, but fresher and made at home. I like how the wrap holds everything together and doesn’t fall apart like a stacked burger. Plus, you can customize it with chips, jalapeños, or whatever toppings you like. If you’re into fast, filling meals, this is one to keep on repeat.
Ingredients
For the sauce:
- 6 tbsp mayo
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 2 tbsp sriracha optional
- 1 tsp vinegar
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- Sugar salt, and pepper to taste
For the wraps (6 servings):
- 1 lb ground beef divided into 6 servings
- Salt and pepper
- Cooking oil
- 1 large onion sliced & caramelized
- Red onion sliced
- Regular flour tortillas
- American cheese slices
- Tomato sliced
- Lettuce shredded
- Pickled jalapeños
- Your favorite chips optional
Instructions
- Mix the sauce. In a small bowl, mix mayo, ketchup, sriracha, vinegar, garlic powder, a pinch of sugar, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust it how you like. Chill it in the fridge while everything else cooks.
- Caramelize half the onion. Heat oil in a stainless steel pan over medium heat. Add half of the sliced onion and cook for 15 minutes, stirring every few minutes. Toward the end, increase the heat and keep stirring until the onions turn deep golden and slightly charred. Don’t let them get mushy.
- Cook the patties. Divide the ground beef into six equal portions. Shape each one into a ball. Place it between parchment paper and press it down with a burger press or the bottom of a pan. Season both sides with salt and black pepper. Cook the patties in a hot skillet for 3–4 minutes per side. After flipping, add one slice of American cheese on top to melt.
- Warm the tortillas. Lightly dampen a paper towel and dab both sides of each tortilla. This keeps them soft and makes them easier to wrap without tearing.
- Assemble your wraps. Build each wrap in this order: tortilla, sauce, lettuce, cooked beef patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, caramelized onion, raw onion slices, pickled jalapeños, then top with another slice of cheese.
- Wrap it up. Fold the sides over and roll into a tight rectangular wrap.
- Toast the wrap. Place the wrap seam-side down in a dry skillet over medium heat. Press gently with a spatula and toast each side for 2–3 minutes until golden and the cheese inside melts.
- Slice and serve. Cut the wrap straight across and plate it with your favorite chips.
