ingredients

(Tip: You can find the complete list of ingredients and their measurements in the recipe card below.)

1 pound lean ground beef
1 cup Nacho Cheese Sauce
½ cup sour cream
1 can Rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilis)
½ cup chopped green peppers
½ cup diced onions
1 packet taco seasoning mix
Nacho Cheese flavored Doritos, crushed
4 flour tortilla wraps
Shredded lettuce

directions

In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
Add the diced onions and chopped green peppers to the skillet and sauté for about 4 minutes until slightly softened.
Stir in the taco seasoning mix and combine thoroughly with the beef and vegetables.
In a separate bowl, mix together the Rotel and Nacho Cheese Sauce until well combined.
Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous layer of the cheese mixture down the center of each tortilla.
Add a layer of the beef mixture on top of the cheese. Then, add sour cream, remaining sautéed onions and peppers, and a handful of crushed Doritos.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll up tightly like a burrito.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and toast until golden and crispy on both sides, about 2–3 minutes per side.
Serve hot, topped or sided with shredded lettuce and any additional toppings you prefer.

Variations

Spicy version: Add jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the cheese mixture for extra heat.
Vegetarian twist: Replace the beef with seasoned black beans or a plant-based ground meat substitute.
Cheese overload: Sprinkle shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack inside for a richer cheese experience.
Lettuce wrap option: For a low-carb version, use large lettuce leaves instead of tortillas.
Breakfast wrap: Add scrambled eggs and hash browns for a morning-friendly adaptation.

storage/reheating

Store leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
To reheat, place the wraps in a skillet over medium heat and warm until heated through, about 3–5 minutes per side. You may also reheat in the microwave for 60–90 seconds, though the tortilla may soften rather than crisp.

FAQs

Can I make these wraps ahead of time?

Yes, assemble the wraps without toasting them, then refrigerate. Toast just before serving for best texture.

Can I freeze the Nacho Cheese Beef Wraps?

It is best not to freeze due to the sour cream and cheese sauce, which may separate upon thawing.

What other meats can I use?

Ground turkey, shredded chicken, or even pulled pork work well in place of ground beef.

How do I keep the tortillas from getting soggy?

Toast the wrap right before serving and avoid overfilling with wet ingredients like salsa or excess cheese sauce.

What can I serve with these wraps?

Pair with a side of Spanish rice, refried beans, or a simple salad for a complete meal.

Can I bake them instead of toasting in a skillet?

Yes, bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway, until crispy and heated through.

What type of tortilla works best?

Use large flour tortillas, as they are sturdy and easy to fold without tearing.

Are Nacho Cheese Doritos necessary?

They add a signature flavor and crunch, but you can substitute with plain tortilla chips or another flavored variety.

How spicy is this wrap?

It’s mildly spicy due to the Rotel; adjust heat by choosing mild or hot varieties or adding extra chili.

Can I omit the sour cream?

Yes, but it adds a creamy tang. Consider replacing it with Greek yogurt or leaving it out entirely.
