Ingredients:

- 1 cup shredded lettuce

- 1/2 cup sliced black olives

Optional Additions:

Instructions:
- Cook the Beef:
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
- Add Seasoning:
- Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the mixture to thicken.
- Warm the Nacho Cheese:
- In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the nacho cheese sauce, stirring occasionally, until it is smooth and heated through.
- Prepare the Tortillas:
- Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until they are pliable.
- Assemble the Wraps:
- Lay each tortilla flat and spread a generous spoonful of nacho cheese sauce in the center.
- Add a portion of the seasoned beef on top of the cheese sauce.
- Layer with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, black olives, red onions, and shredded cheddar cheese.
- If using, add a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of cilantro, and any optional additions such as jalapeƱos, guacamole, or salsa.
- Wrap It Up:
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up from the bottom to the top to form a wrap. Ensure the filling is securely enclosed.
- Serve:
- Serve the Nacho Cheese Beef Wraps immediately while they are warm.
Tips for Success:
- For extra flavor, toast the wrapped tortillas in a skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side to create a crispy exterior.
- Customize the wrap with your favorite nacho toppings or add a kick with spicy salsa or hot sauce.
- If you prefer, use ground turkey or chicken as a leaner alternative to ground beef.
