Ingredients:

4 large flour tortillas
1 cup tortilla chips, crushed
1/2 cup diced tomatoes
1/4 cup finely chopped onions
1/4 cup chopped lettuce (optional)
Sour cream, for serving (optional)
Directions:
1. Cooking Beef: Over medium heat, cook the ground beef in a skillet until it is brown. Dispose of excess fat and then add taco seasoning with a bit of water. Continue cooking for another 2 minutes for flavors to merge properly.
2. Preparing Wraps: Lay out the flour tortillas and spread a layer of nacho cheese sauce on each.
3. Assembling: Symmetrically distribute seasoned beef over the tortillas. Then add shredded cheddar cheese, crushed tortilla chips, diced tomatoes, and onions. If preferred, you can add lettuce.
4. Wrapping: Fold the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly from the bottom upward to create your wrap.
5. Heating Wraps: Optionally, you can grill the wraps for 2-3 minutes on a skillet on both sides until golden brown, ensuring the cheese inside gets melted.
6. Serving: Cut each wrap in half and serve with a side of sour cream for dipping, if desired.
How to Serve Beefy Nacho Cheese Wrap:
Serve this dish by cutting each wrap into two halves alongside a dipping of sour cream, if desired. It’s ideal for dinner or afternoon snacks.

Tips to Make Beefy Nacho Cheese Wrap:
Ensure the ground beef is fully cooked and seasonings are well mixed for the best flavor. When heating the wrap, take care for it not to burn but instead reach a golden brown color.
