Tortilla Wraps

I have always loved tacos; but when Dianne served the soft version of it using tortilla wraps, I loved it even more. I told Dianne I'd try to serve it in our house one time, and I made this just two weeks after I ate Dianne's version of the dish.

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

How to Cook:

• 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.

Notes to Consider:

• 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!
