2. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese onto each tortilla.
3. Spoon the beef mixture evenly over the cheese.

Storing and Freezing

Storage Tips

• Store leftover beef filling in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Keep the creamy sauce refrigerated in a sealed container for 3-4 days.

Freezing Instructions

• The beef filling can be frozen for up to 3 months in an airtight container. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat before assembling the wraps.
• Avoid freezing fully assembled wraps, as the lettuce and tomatoes may become soggy.

Recipe Variations

• Spicy version – Add extra chili powder or diced jalapeños.
• Low-carb option – Swap tortillas for lettuce wraps.
• Dairy-free alternative – Use dairy-free cheese and replace sour cream with coconut yogurt.
• Extra protein – Add black beans or refried beans for a heartier wrap.

FAQs

Can I use ground turkey instead of beef?
Yes! Ground turkey works well as a leaner option while still keeping the flavors rich and delicious.

How do I prevent the wrap from getting soggy?
Make sure to drain excess liquid from the beef mixture and assemble the wraps just before serving.

Can I make this ahead of time?
