Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
4 large flour tortillas
4 slices cheddar cheese
1/2 cup lettuce, shredded
1/2 cup tomato, diced
1/4 cup pickles, sliced
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons mustard
1 tablespoon butter (for grilling)
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
Directions
In a bowl, mix the ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes per side or until fully cooked.
While the burgers are cooking, place a tortilla on a flat surface. Once the burgers are cooked, place a slice of cheese on each patty and allow it to melt.
Place a cooked cheeseburger in the center of each tortilla. Top with lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, and mustard.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then roll it up tightly to form a wrap.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place each wrap seam-side down and grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the wraps are golden and crispy.
Remove from the skillet and cut the wraps in half to serve.

Variations
Veggie Option: I can replace the beef patty with a veggie burger or a plant-based patty for a vegetarian or vegan version of this wrap.
Cheese Swap: If I’m craving a different flavor, I can use Swiss, American, or even pepper jack cheese instead of cheddar.
Add Bacon: For a little extra indulgence, I can add crispy bacon strips into the wrap for that extra crunch and smokiness.
Spicy Kick: If I want a spicy version, I can add jalapeño slices or swap the mustard for spicy mustard or sriracha.
Storage/Reheating
I can store leftover grilled cheeseburger wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. When I’m ready to eat them again, I can reheat them in a skillet over medium heat for a few minutes on each side until they’re warm and crispy again. Alternatively, I can microwave them for 30-45 seconds, though they may lose some of their crispiness.

FAQs
How can I make these wraps ahead of time?
I can prepare the patties, cook them, and assemble the wraps up to the point of grilling. I’ll wrap the ungrilled wraps in foil and store them in the fridge. When I’m ready to eat, I just need to grill them for a couple of minutes on each side.
Can I freeze these wraps?
Yes, I can freeze the assembled wraps before grilling. Wrap them tightly in foil or plastic wrap, and place them in an airtight container or freezer bag. When ready to eat, I can thaw them overnight in the fridge and grill them as directed.
Can I use a different type of tortilla?

To boost the flavor of the burgers, I can add more spices like smoked paprika, cumin, or a little chili powder. I can also mix in some finely chopped onions or garlic into the beef mixture.
Can I make these wraps in the oven instead of grilling them?
I can bake the wraps in the oven at 375°F for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden and crispy. It’s a great option if I don’t want to stand over the stove!
