Tortillas
- 4 Large Flour Tortillas
Cheese
- 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
Vegetables
- 1 cup Lettuce, shredded
- 1 Tomato, diced
- 1/2 cup Pickles, sliced
- 1/2 cup Onions, diced (optional)
Special Sauce
- 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup Ketchup
- 1/4 cup Relish
Instructions
- Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Make sure to break it into small pieces as it cooks for even texture.
- Prepare the Special Sauce: In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, and relish together until well combined. This will serve as the flavorful sauce for the burrito.
- Warm the Tortillas: Lightly toast the tortillas in a dry skillet for a few seconds on each side to make them pliable. This step helps prevent tearing when rolling.
- Assemble the Burrito: On a warmed tortilla, layer cooked beef, cheddar cheese, lettuce, chopped tomatoes, pickles, onions, and a generous drizzle of special sauce.
- Roll It Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tightly from the bottom up to secure all the tasty fillings inside.
- Grill the Burrito (Optional): If desired, grill the rolled burrito in a skillet for a couple of minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
Notes
- Choose Quality Ingredients: High-quality meat and fresh produce will significantly enhance the flavor of your burrito.
- Don’t Overfill: While it’s tempting to add lots of fillings, overfilling can make rolling the burrito difficult.
- Wrap Tightly: Ensure to roll the burrito tightly to prevent it from falling apart during eating.
- Experiment with Sauces: Feel free to try different sauces if you want to switch up the flavor profile.
- Use a Panini Press: For an extra crispy exterior, consider using a panini press to grill your burrito.
