How to Make Grilled Cheeseburger Wraps
To make these wraps, you'll start by cooking the ground beef until browned and seasoned to perfection.

A quick drizzle of a simple sauce made from light mayo, ketchup, and mustard brings all the flavors together. Finally, you'll grill the wraps until they're golden brown and crispy on the outside, making them perfect for a satisfying meal.
Storage & Serving Suggestions
Storing Leftovers: Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, simply warm them in a skillet or microwave until heated through.
Serving Ideas: Pair these wraps with a side of sweet potato fries or a fresh salad for a well-rounded meal.
Tips & FAQs
Can I use a different type of meat?
Absolutely! Ground turkey or chicken works well as a lighter alternative to beef, and you can also use plant-based meat substitutes for a vegetarian option.
Can I make these wraps ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the beef mixture and assemble the wraps a day in advance. Store them in the refrigerator, and then grill them when you're ready to serve.
How can I make these wraps gluten-free?
Just swap out the whole wheat tortillas for gluten-free ones, and you’re all set!
What other toppings can I add?
Feel free to get creative with the toppings! Sliced pickles, jalapeños, or even avocado would be great additions to these wraps.
Can I make the sauce healthier?
For a lighter sauce, you can substitute Greek yogurt for the mayo or use a combination of both.
