Ingredients
Scale
Protein:
- 1 pound (454 grams) lean ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix
Dairy and Sauce:
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) nacho cheese sauce
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) sour cream
- Shredded lettuce
Vegetables and Wrap Components:
- 1 can rotel (green chilis with diced tomatoes)
- 1/2 cup (75 grams) chopped green peppers
- 1/2 cup (75 grams) diced onions
- Nacho cheese flavored doritos, crushed
- 4 flour tortilla wraps
Instructions
- Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until no pink remains, approximately 7-8 minutes.
- Incorporate diced onions, green peppers, and taco seasoning, sautéing for 3-4 minutes to meld flavors and soften vegetables.
- Pour Rotel tomatoes into the meat mixture, stirring and simmering for 2-3 minutes until thoroughly heated and liquid slightly reduces.
- Gently warm tortillas in microwave for 15-20 seconds or briefly toast in a clean skillet to enhance flexibility.
- Generously coat tortilla surface with nacho cheese sauce, creating an even layer that extends near the edges.
- Dollop sour cream alongside the cheese sauce, distributing evenly across the tortilla surface.
- Centralize the seasoned beef mixture slightly off-center of each tortilla, allowing room for folding.
- Sprinkle crushed Doritos across the beef for a crunchy texture and additional flavor profile.
- Layer shredded lettuce on top of the Doritos to introduce fresh, crisp elements.
- Carefully fold tortilla sides inward, then roll from bottom to top, creating a compact wrap.
- Slice diagonally and serve immediately while ingredients remain warm and crisp.
Notes
- Select lean ground beef to reduce excess grease and create a cleaner, healthier wrap.
- Drain beef thoroughly after cooking to prevent soggy tortillas and maintain crisp texture.
- Customize heat levels by choosing mild or spicy taco seasoning based on personal preference.
- For gluten-free option, use corn tortillas and check seasoning mix ingredients for wheat-based additives.
