Ingredients for Easy Cheeseburger Crunch Wrap

For the Patties

  • 8 oz 93% lean ground turkey or lean ground beef
  • ¾ tsp kosher salt
  • Olive oil spray

For the Wrap

  • 2 large 10-inch tortillas (low-carb optional)
  • 2 slices cheddar or American cheese
  • 2 Tbsp ketchup
  • 1 Tbsp mustard
  • Sliced dill pickles
  • Sliced red onion
  • Shredded lettuce

Optional Crunch

  • Air-fryer fries, tortilla chips, or a small tostada shell inside the wrap

Ingredient Notes

  • Meat substitutes: Ground turkey, chicken, plant-based crumbles, or vegetarian patties all work.
  • Cheese swaps: Gouda, mozzarella, or even pepper jack for a kick.
  • Condiments: Swap ketchup and mustard for BBQ sauce, mayo, or even spicy sriracha-mayo.
  • Extra crunch: For a Taco Bell-inspired crunch, add a small tostada or crushed chips inside.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1 – Prepare the Patties

Form the ground turkey (or chosen meat) into two flat patties about ⅓ inch thick. Season both sides lightly with salt.

Step 2 – Cook the Patties

Skillet method:

  • Spray a skillet with olive oil and heat over medium.
  • Cook patties 5 minutes per side until fully cooked.

Air fryer method:

  • Preheat air fryer to 400 °F (200 °C).
  • Cook patties 10–14 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Step 3 – Assemble the Wrap

  • Place one cooked patty in the center of a tortilla.
  • Add a slice of cheese on top while the patty is hot.
  • Layer with pickles, onions, ketchup, mustard, and lettuce.
  • Optional: place fries or a tostada inside for extra crunch.

Step 4 – Fold & Crisp

  • Fold the edges of the tortilla toward the center, pleating as needed.
  • Skillet: Cook folded-side down for 1–2 minutes until golden. Flip and crisp the other side.
  • Air fryer: Preheat to 400 °F (200 °C), place wrap folded-side down, lightly spray with oil, and cook 4–5 minutes, flipping halfway.

Pro Tips for Success

  1. Flatten patties evenly for consistent cooking.
  2. Don’t overload the wrap; too many fillings make folding difficult.
  3. Crisp tortillas on medium heat to avoid burning before cheese melts.
  4. Use fresh toppings for a bright, crunchy flavor.
  5. Experiment with sauces like honey mustard or smoky ketchup.

Flavor Variations

  • Spicy Cheeseburger Crunch Wrap: Add pickled jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.
  • Bacon Lovers: Add crisp bacon strips inside the wrap.
  • Mushroom Swiss: Swap cheddar for Swiss and add sautéed mushrooms.
  • BBQ Burger Wrap: Use BBQ sauce instead of ketchup and add caramelized onions.
  • Veggie Delight: Use a veggie patty, add roasted peppers, and skip meat entirely.

Serving Suggestions

  • Serve with fresh garden salad or steamed vegetables.
  • Pair with sweet potato fries or air-fryer fries for a classic feel.
  • Great for picnics, school lunches, or casual dinners.

Storage and Freezing Instructions

  • Fridge: Wrap in foil or airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Freezer: Wrap tightly in parchment and foil, freeze up to 1 month.
  • Reheat: Oven or air fryer preferred to keep wrap crispy; microwave will soften tortilla.
