Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef (80/20 blend for juicier texture)
• 8 large flour tortillas (sturdy enough to hold everything)
• 2 cups shredded lettuce (pat dry to avoid sogginess)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (adds melty, savory goodness)
• 0.5 cup chopped onions (white or yellow work best)
• 0.5 cup dill pickles (chopped into small chunks)
• Salt and pepper (to season the beef)
• 0.5 cup mayonnaise (full-fat for best flavor)
• 2 tbsp sweet pickle relish (adds classic Big Mac sweetness)
• 1 tbsp yellow mustard (for that signature tang)
• 1 tsp white vinegar (balances out the sauce)
• 1 tsp garlic powder (adds depth)
• 1 tsp onion powder (essential for that familiar flavor)
• 1 tsp paprika (for color and warmth)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Make the Big Mac Sauce by whisking together mayonnaise, sweet pickle relish, yellow mustard, white vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika in a mixing bowl. Chill the sauce while preparing the rest.
2. Step 2: Cook the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Break it up with a spatula and season with salt and pepper. Cook until no pink remains, then drain any excess fat.
3. Step 3: Warm the tortillas by microwaving them between damp paper towels for 30 seconds or toasting briefly in a dry skillet until soft and pliable.
4. Step 4: Spread 2 tablespoons of the chilled Big Mac sauce on each tortilla. Add a scoop of cooked ground beef, shredded lettuce, chopped onions, pickles, and shredded cheddar cheese.
5. Step 5: Roll each wrap tightly and place seam-side down in a dry skillet. Toast for 2–3 minutes until golden and crisp.
6. Step 6: Slice the wraps diagonally and serve with extra Big Mac sauce on the side.

Tips & Variations

• Use a blend of ground beef with higher fat content (80/20) for juicier wraps.
• Pat the lettuce dry to prevent sogginess inside the wrap.
• Feel free to swap cheddar for American cheese for an even more authentic Big Mac flavor.
• For a lighter version, use low-fat mayonnaise or Greek yogurt in the sauce.
• Add sliced tomatoes or shredded carrots for extra crunch and freshness.

Storage

Store any leftover wraps wrapped tightly in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm them in a dry skillet over medium heat until the exterior is crispy and the cheese slightly melted. Avoid using a microwave to keep the tortilla from getting soggy.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I make the sauce ahead of time?

You can substitute flour tortillas with large lettuce leaves for a low-carb option, or use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas if preferred.

• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (adds melty, savory goodness)

For the Big Mac Sauce

• 1 tbsp yellow mustard (for that signature tang)
• 1 tsp white vinegar (balances out the sauce)
• 1 tsp garlic powder (adds depth)
• 1 tsp onion powder (essential for that familiar flavor)
• 1 tsp paprika (for color and warmth)

Instructions

1. Make the Big Mac Sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet pickle relish, yellow mustard, white vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika until well combined. Chill the sauce in the refrigerator while you prepare the rest of the ingredients to let the flavors meld.
2. Cook the Ground Beef: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and begin breaking it up with a spatula. Season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the beef is fully browned with no pink remaining. Drain any excess fat to avoid greasiness.
3. Warm the Tortillas: To make the tortillas pliable and easy to roll, microwave them between damp paper towels for about 30 seconds or place them briefly in a dry skillet for a few seconds on each side until soft and warm.
4. Assemble the Wraps: Lay each warm tortilla flat and spread about 2 tablespoons of the chilled Big Mac sauce evenly over the surface. Add a generous scoop of the cooked ground beef, followed by shredded lettuce, chopped onions, dill pickles, and shredded cheddar cheese.
5. Roll and Toast: Tightly roll each tortilla to enclose the filling and place each wrap seam-side down in a dry skillet over medium heat. Toast for 2–3 minutes until the wrap is golden brown and crispy on the outside, pressing gently to seal it and enhance texture.
6. Serve and Enjoy: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice them diagonally for easy eating, and serve immediately with extra Big Mac sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy the classic flavors in a convenient, fun wrap!
