  3. Season the beef mixture with smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

Variations:

  1. Veggie Add-ins: Add sautéed bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach to the beef mixture for extra flavor and nutrition.
  2. Cheese Choices: Try using different cheeses like mozzarella, pepper jack, or Monterey Jack for a unique twist.
  3. Spicy Option: Add chopped jalapeños or a bit of hot sauce to the beef mixture for a spicy kick.
  4. Chicken Version: Swap ground beef for ground chicken or turkey for a lighter alternative.
  5. Taco-Style: Use taco seasoning in place of smoked paprika and onion powder for a more traditional taco flavor.

Tips:

  • Tortilla Toasting: For a crispy exterior, lightly toast the tortillas in a dry skillet before wrapping them up with the filling.
  • Make-ahead: The beef mixture can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 2 days. Just warm it up before assembling the wraps.
  • Creamy Sauce: If using store-bought creamy cheese sauce, feel free to add a little milk to thin it out if it’s too thick.
  • Add Fresh Herbs: Top the wraps with fresh cilantro or parsley for a burst of freshness and color.
