🛒 Ingredient Breakdown

Here’s why this works, and what each ingredient brings to the party:

🔹 1 lb Lean Ground Beef

The hearty base of your wrap—juicy, flavorful, and packed with protein. Lean beef (90/10 or 93/7) keeps it rich without excess grease.

🔹 ½ Cup Chopped Green Peppers & ½ Cup Diced Onions

These veggies bring brightness and a little crunch. Plus, they balance out the richness of the cheese and beef.

🔹 1 Packet Taco Seasoning

The easiest way to infuse serious flavor with zero effort. Want to DIY it? Use chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and paprika.

🔹 1 Can Rotel (Green Chilies + Diced Tomatoes)

Adds a tangy tomato hit and a little heat from the green chilies. A classic flavor enhancer in Tex-Mex cooking.

🔹 1 Cup Nacho Cheese Sauce

Whether it’s from a jar or homemade, this creamy gold is the centerpiece. Warm it before mixing for best texture.

🔹 ½ Cup Sour Cream

Balances the spice and richness. Want a healthier swap? Try Greek yogurt.

🔹 Nacho Cheese Doritos (Crushed)

These are your secret weapon—crunchy, cheesy, and the wildcard that takes this wrap over the top.

🔹 4 Large Flour Tortillas

Soft and flexible, perfect for holding all the fillings without tearing. Burrito-size tortillas are ideal.

🔹 Shredded Lettuce (for serving)

Adds freshness and a cool, crisp finish. Optional—but highly recommended.

👨‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions (with Tips!)

1. Brown the Beef

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook 1 lb of ground beef until fully browned. Drain any excess fat.

Tip: Season with a pinch of salt while browning to layer flavor.

2. Sauté Onions & Peppers

Add in ½ cup chopped green peppers and ½ cup diced onions. Sauté for about 4 minutes, until softened and fragrant.

3. Add Taco Seasoning

Sprinkle in your taco seasoning packet and stir to coat everything evenly. Add a splash of water if needed to help distribute.

4. Make the Cheese Mix

In a small bowl, combine 1 cup nacho cheese sauce with 1 can of Rotel. Warm slightly if the cheese sauce is thick.

Optional Upgrade: Add a spoonful of cream cheese for extra richness.

5. Build the Wraps

Lay 4 large tortillas flat. Spoon a generous layer of the nacho cheese mixture down the center of each. Then top with:

Seasoned beef and veggie mixture
1–2 tablespoons sour cream
Extra onions and peppers if desired
A handful of crushed Doritos (don’t be shy!)

Tip: Don’t overfill! Leave room to fold and roll.

6. Wrap It Up

Fold in the left and right sides, then roll up from the bottom like a burrito. Tuck tightly to hold everything in.

7. Toast or Grill

Heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place each wrap seam-side down and toast until golden brown and crispy on both sides—about 2 minutes per side.

No skillet? Wraps can also be baked at 400°F for 10–12 minutes or air-fried at 375°F for 7–8 minutes.

8. Serve with Toppings

Plate your wrap with a side of shredded lettuce, extra sour cream, salsa, or hot sauce. Boom. Dinner = DONE.
