Can I use ground turkey?

Lean ground turkey can be substituted for ground beef․ I recommend adding Worcestershire sauce to the turkey filling to give it a burger-like taste‚ which is what I want from this recipe․ Other wrap recipe ingredients can stay the same․ Choose cheeses and other toppings․

Why is my wrap soggy?

Start with beef․ For an 85/15 beef mixture‚ drain excess beef grease before filling other ingredients in the tortillas to avoid greasy tortillas․ Limit the amount of beef mixture to 1/3 cup per tortilla․ Too much beef filling can make the tortillas hard to roll and seal․ Too much filling may prevent the sealed edge from holding during cooking․ Turn tortillas seam side down in a preheated grill pan or indoor grill or skillet over medium heat for the recommended cooking time per side or until golden brown and grill-marked․

Can I make the filling ahead?

Cook and chill the filling in an airtight container during the week․ Reheat cooked meats when making wraps to help melt the cheese in the filling․ I don't preassemble the wraps‚ but I do grill each one after adding the filling and rolling it in the tortilla․

Which cheese can I use?

American cheese is a classic flavor for burgers‚ but other types of cheese to try on burgers include cheddar‚ Colby Jack‚ pepper jack‚ Swiss‚ and mozzarella․

Why does the filling spill out?

The tortilla fold should be like a burrito fold‚ with the ends of the tortilla folded inside․ Let the wrap sit for 1 minute on a cutting board before slicing․ This will help the cheese settle․

Cheeseburger Wrap with Seasoned Beef and American Cheese

I aim to keep some pink beef when adding other ingredients․ I cook the beef until it's no longer pink to mix all ingredients well․ Worcestershire sauce gives the beef a grilled flavor‚ and Parmesan cheese mixes well with other filling ingredients․ I don't leave out Worcestershire sauce or Parmesan cheese‚ even when using other cheeses to fill wraps․

Fill each tortilla with about 1/3 cup of filling and add other burger toppings and condiments․ Roll the tortilla․ To roll‚ fold each side of the tortilla inward‚ like rolling a burrito․ Put the tortilla‚ seam side down‚ into a hot pan‚ the seam will stay sealed when you turn the tortilla over․

I use a grill pan to simulate grill marks․ Other indoor grilling options include an indoor grill and frying pan․ Let the wrap sit on the cutting board for a minute or two before slicing to keep filling from leaking out․ The filling can be prepped ahead of time for meal prep purposes and individually wrapped in tortillas for later grilling․
