This dish was inspired from what Dianne served, but this recipe was my own adaptation.
Tortilla Wraps
{Makes 6 Wraps}
Ingredients:
- 6 pieces tortilla wraps
- 250 grams ground beef
- 1 small head iceberg lettuce, shredded
- 1 small tub yogurt
- 1 - 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- lemon juice or regular white vinegar, to taste
- 1/4 teaspoons sugar (or to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 medium sized onion, minced
- 2 medium sized tomatoes, chopped
- grated cheddar cheese
- hot sauce
- Saute a bit of minced onion in very little oil (about 1 tablespoon) and add the beef. Continue sauteeing it until it's cooked. Discard any rendered fat, and season with salt and pepper.
- Mix yogurt with mayonnaise and add lemon juice or vinegar according to your taste. Add the garlic powder and whisk. Season with minimal sugar, salt pepper.
- Prepare the mise en place - put each of the ingredients in individual bowls and let your guests or your family prepare their own wrap.
- To assemble, get one tortilla wrap, put in each ingredient one by one in the middle, and wrap the filling. Eat.
- You can use any kind of tortilla wraps for this dish, I used the whole wheat ones.
- Heat up the wraps before you serve, but don't toast them.
- There is no wrong or right amount of filling to be used - just go with your own taste, just be sure you don't add to much or you won't be able to wrap it anymore. :)
This one was much easier to eat because it wasn't really messy, but of course, I'd still want to eat tacos because of its texture. Well, soft or not - taco shells or tortilla wraps, I think I have found a good way of eating it. The yogurt/mayo mix was really a good discovery. Thanks for the tip, Dianne!
