How to Make Big Mac Wraps

Step 1: Prepare the Special Sauce

1. In a small mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, chopped pickles, mustard, white vinegar, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
2. Stir the ingredients until smooth and creamy.
3. Cover and refrigerate to let the flavors meld while you work on the rest of the recipe.

Step 2: Cook the Beef

1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
2. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it into crumbles with a spatula. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Cook until the beef is browned and fully cooked, approximately 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess grease.

Step 3: Assemble the Wraps

1. Warm the tortillas slightly in the microwave or on a skillet for easier folding.
2. Spread a generous layer of the prepared special sauce over each tortilla.
3. Add a portion of the cooked ground beef on top of the sauce.
4. Sprinkle shredded lettuce and cheddar cheese over the beef. Add dill pickle slices if you like.

Step 4: Wrap and Serve

2. Slice the wraps in half for easy serving, and enjoy immediately!

What to Serve with Big Mac Wraps

Tips for Perfect Big Mac Wraps

Don’t skip the sauce: The special sauce is the heart of this recipe and makes these wraps taste just like the real deal.
Warm tortillas: Warming the tortillas helps prevent them from cracking while folding.
Assemble just before serving: This ensures the wraps stay fresh and don’t get soggy.
Meal prep: You can cook the beef and prepare the sauce in advance. Store them separately in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Storage Instructions

Refrigeration: Store any leftover components (beef, sauce, tortillas, and toppings) separately in airtight containers. Assemble wraps fresh when ready to eat.
Freezing: Cooked ground beef can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating and assembling the wraps.
