Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 1 pound (0.45 kg) lean ground beef
Cheese and Dairy:
- 1 cup nacho cheese sauce
- ½ cup (120 ml) sour cream
- Shredded lettuce
Vegetables and Seasonings:
- ½ cup (75 g) chopped green peppers
- ½ cup (75 g) diced onions
- 1 can Rotel (green chilis with diced tomatoes)
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix
Wrap and Crunchy Topping:
- 4 flour tortilla wraps
- Doritos, nacho cheese flavored, crushed
Instructions
- Pulverize ground beef in a sizzling skillet, ensuring thorough cooking and complete fat elimination.
- Incorporate diced onions and verdant green peppers, allowing them to caramelize and soften for approximately 4 minutes.
- Generously sprinkle taco seasoning across the meat mixture, then introduce diced Rotel tomatoes and creamy nacho cheese sauce, blending ingredients seamlessly.
- Distribute the zesty cheese and meat combination centrally along each warm tortilla, creating a tantalizing base layer.
- Embellish the cheese foundation with hearty meat mixture, dollops of tangy sour cream, additional crisp onion and pepper fragments, and crunchy crushed Doritos for textural contrast.
- Carefully envelope the tortilla edges, tucking and rolling into a compact burrito-style configuration.
- Transfer the assembled wraps to a preheated medium-temperature skillet, transforming exteriors into golden, crispy shells by toasting both sides until achieving a delectable crunch.
- Present immediately, garnishing with freshly shredded crisp lettuce and preferred complementary toppings for a vibrant, satisfying meal.
Notes
- Prep your ground beef by draining excess fat to keep the wrap crisp and prevent sogginess.
- Sautéing onions and green peppers beforehand releases their natural sweetness and enhances overall flavor profile.
- Layer ingredients strategically: nacho cheese sauce first, then meat mixture to prevent tortilla from becoming wet and falling apart.
- Crushing Doritos adds a delightful crunch and extra cheesy flavor, transforming an ordinary wrap into something spectacular.
- Toasting the wrap creates a crispy exterior, sealing in all the delicious ingredients and providing a satisfying textural contrast.
- Serve immediately after cooking to maintain the wrap’s optimal temperature and crispy texture.
