Description
A bold and satisfying Tex-Mex handheld meal featuring seasoned ground beef, nacho cheese, Rotel, and crushed halal cheese chips wrapped in a toasted tortilla. Quick, flavorful, and perfect for a weeknight dinner or game-day snack.
Ingredients
1 lb (450 g) lean ground beef
1 cup nacho cheese sauce
½ cup sour cream
1 can Rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilis)
½ cup green bell pepper, chopped
½ cup onion, diced
1 packet taco seasoning mix
1 cup crushed halal cheese-flavored chips
4 large flour tortilla wraps
Shredded lettuce (for serving)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Drain off any excess fat.
- Add the diced onion and chopped green bell pepper to the beef and sauté for about 4 minutes until softened.
- Sprinkle in the taco seasoning, stir well, and let it simmer for a couple of minutes to combine flavors.
- In a separate bowl, mix the nacho cheese sauce with the Rotel until smooth.
- Lay out the flour tortillas and spread a line of the cheese-Rotel mixture down the center of each.
- Spoon the seasoned beef mixture on top, add a dollop of sour cream, and sprinkle with crushed chips.
- Fold in the sides and roll the wraps burrito-style.
- Toast each wrap seam-side down in a clean skillet over medium heat for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
- Serve warm with shredded lettuce and optional toppings like salsa or guacamole.
Notes
Add diced jalapeños or hot sauce for extra spice.
Swap ground beef with shredded rotisserie chicken for a lighter option.
Use black beans, corn, and mushrooms for a vegetarian version.
Use low-carb tortillas and skip chips for a low-carb variation.
Sprinkle extra shredded cheese for a double-cheese experience.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat in skillet or oven for best texture.
Let beef cool before assembling to avoid sogginess.
Prep filling and cheese mix in advance, but assemble wraps fresh for best results.
Freeze the beef and cheese mixture separately if needed.
Use bold-flavored halal-certified cheese chips for best taste.
Substitute with dairy-free cheese and sour cream if needed.
