How to Make Cheeseburger Wraps

Stir well and remove from heat.
3. Make the Sauce
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard until smooth. Set aside.
4. Assemble the Wraps
Lay a tortilla flat.
Spread a spoonful of sauce in the center, then add cooked beef, shredded cheese, pickles, lettuce, and diced tomato.

6. Toast (Optional but Highly Recommended)
Place wraps seam-side down in a hot skillet.
Toast for 1โ2 minutes per side until golden and slightly crispy.
