Nacho Cheese Beef Wrap

Step 1: Prepare the Beef Filling

1. Cook the beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Cook until the beef is browned and the onion is soft, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
2. Season the beef: Add the taco seasoning and water to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 2: Make the Nacho Cheese Sauce

1. Melt the butter: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
2. Make the roux: Add the flour to the melted butter and whisk continuously for about 1 minute to form a roux.
3. Add the milk: Gradually whisk in the milk, continuing to whisk until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add the cheese: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, paprika, salt, and cayenne pepper (if using). Continue to stir until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 3: Assemble the Wraps

1. Warm the tortillas: Warm the flour tortillas in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave for a few seconds until pliable.
2. Add the fillings: Place a warm tortilla on a flat surface. Spread a layer of the beef mixture in the center, followed by a generous spoonful of nacho cheese sauce. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños (if using), a dollop of sour cream, and sliced green onions.
3. Wrap it up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to create a wrap.

Step 4: Serve

1. Serve immediately: Serve the nacho cheese beef wraps hot with extra nacho cheese sauce on the side for dipping if desired.

Tips for Perfect Nacho Cheese Beef Wraps

1. Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables add great texture and flavor to the wraps.
2. Adjust the spice level: Control the heat by adjusting the amount of jalapeños and cayenne pepper to suit your taste.
3. Warm the tortillas: Warming the tortillas makes them more pliable and easier to wrap.
