1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
Pinch of paprika (optional for color)
For the Wraps:
1 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon salt

How to Make Big Mac Wraps
Step 1: Make the Special Sauce
In a small bowl, mix together the mayo, pickles, mustard, vinegar, sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Stir until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning. Refrigerate while you prepare the wraps.
Step 2: Brown the Ground Beef
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it up with a spatula. Season with salt, pepper, and onion powder. Cook until browned and no longer pink. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Step 3: Assemble the Wraps
Lay a tortilla flat and spread a generous layer of special sauce in the center. Top with a layer of cooked beef, shredded cheese, chopped onions, pickles, and lettuce.
Optional twist: Add an extra layer of cheese on top of the beef for extra gooeyness when melted.
Fold the tortilla burrito-style — tuck in the sides, then roll tightly from the bottom up.
Step 4: Toast Until Golden
Heat a little oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the wrap seam-side down and toast until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes per side.
Step 5: Slice and Serve
Cut in half and serve warm with fries, a pickle spear, or a side of extra sauce for dipping.
Variations to Try
Double Big Mac Style: Add a middle layer of tortilla with meat and cheese.
Spicy Big Mac: Add jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the beef or sauce.
Low-carb: Use low-carb tortillas or serve as lettuce wraps.
Big Mac Quesadilla: Skip the wrap and press the filling between two tortillas for a quesadilla-style melt.
Meal Prep & Storage
Make ahead: Cook the beef and mix the sauce in advance — just assemble and toast when ready.
Store: Wraps (without lettuce) can be stored in the fridge for 2–3 days.
Reheat: Toast in a skillet or air fryer to bring back the crispiness.
Serving Ideas
With French fries or potato wedges
Paired with coleslaw or a simple salad
As a party platter: Slice into pinwheels and serve with dipping sauce
