🪛 Tools You’ll Need

• Skillet or frying pan

• Mixing bowl

🥄 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Make the sauce

In a bowl, whisk together mayo, ketchup, mustard, relish, and optional spices. Set aside to let flavors meld while you prep the rest.

Step 2: Cook the beef

Season ground beef with salt and pepper. Cook in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it into crumbles, until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease.

Step 3: Warm tortillas

Gently heat tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable—but not crisp.

Step 4: Assemble the wraps

On each tortilla:

• Spread about 1 tablespoon sauce

• Add a scoop of cooked beef

• Top with 1–2 tablespoons lettuce and a few diced onions

• Place a slice of cheese and 1–2 pickle slices

• Spoon a little more sauce on top

Step 5: Wrap it up

Fold in the sides, then roll tightly from one end to the other. Slice in half if you like!

Step 6: Serve and enjoy

Serve immediately or wrap in foil for lunch on the go!

🍽 What to Serve With Them

• Crisp salad or slaw

• Spiced sweet potato fries or classic oven fries

• Fresh fruit or cut veggies

• Iced tea, soda, or a light beer for pairing

💡 Pro Tips

• Don’t make tortillas too hot—they should be soft and flexible, not crunchy.

• Perfect sauce balance: adjust sweetness, tang, or salt to suit your taste.

• Shred lettuce finely—it fits better and wraps more neatly.

• Warm the filling slightly to melt cheese gently inside the wrap.

🧊 Storage Instructions

• Fridge: Store wrapped in foil or airtight container for up to 2 days.

• Reheat: Microwave or press in a skillet until warmed through and cheese is soft.
