Big Mac Wraps

Description

Big Mac Wraps are a fun, healthier, and portable twist on the classic McDonald’s Big Mac burger. They feature seasoned ground beef, shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, pickles, onions, and a creamy copycat Big Mac sauce — all wrapped in a warm flour tortilla. Perfect for a quick lunch or dinner that satisfies fast-food cravings without the drive-thru.

Ingredients (Serves 4)

For the Wraps:

1 lb (450 g) lean ground beef

4 large flour tortillas (8–10 inch)

1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup diced white onion

1/2 cup sliced dill pickles

For the Big Mac Sauce:

1/2 cup mayonnaise

2 tbsp ketchup

1 tbsp yellow mustard

1 tbsp sweet pickle relish

1 tsp white vinegar

1/2 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Make the Big Mac Sauce:

In a bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, relish, vinegar, onion powder, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir well and refrigerate until ready to use.

Cook the Beef:

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook until fully browned, about 6–8 minutes. Break it up into small crumbles. Drain any excess fat.

Warm the Tortillas:

Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20–30 seconds to make tem pliable.

Assemble the Wraps:

Spread 1–2 tablespoons of Big Mac sauce on each tortilla.

Add a quarter of the ground beef mixture.

Top with shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, diced onions, and pickles.

Wrap and Serve:

Fold in the sides and roll up tightly. You can toast the wraps seam-side down in a skillet for 1–2 minutes if desired.
