Ingredients
Scale
Beef Mixture
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Garlic Butter
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Wraps and Garnish
- 4 large flour tortillas
- Optional: sliced pickles for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Cook the Beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula—this normally takes about 7 to 8 minutes to ensure it’s thoroughly cooked.
- Season the Beef: Stir in Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to incorporate all the spices. Remove the skillet from heat and allow the beef mixture to cool slightly to make assembling easier.
- Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with minced garlic. Stir well to infuse the butter with garlic flavor and set aside for brushing on the rollups.
- Assemble the Rollups: Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the seasoned beef mixture over each tortilla, then sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses on top, spreading evenly.
- Roll and Bake: Roll each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides to secure the filling so nothing falls out during baking. Place each rollup seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops generously with the garlic butter to add flavor and help the roll-ups brown beautifully. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Remove the rollups from the oven and allow them to cool slightly to set. Slice into pinwheels if desired. Garnish with sliced pickles for an extra tangy crunch and serve warm for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute the flour tortillas with whole wheat or low-carb tortillas for a healthier option.
- Feel free to add diced onions or bell peppers to the beef mixture for extra veggies and flavor.
- To make these rollups spicier, add some red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce into the beef seasoning.
- Leftover rollups can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or air fryer to maintain crispness.
- If preferred, use a blend of cheeses like pepper jack or smoked gouda for a different cheese profile.
