Instructions

Cook the Beef Mixture
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil (if needed), then sauté onion and bell pepper for 2–3 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 more minute.
Add ground beef and break it up with a spoon. Cook until browned. Drain excess grease if needed.
Stir in taco seasoning, black beans, corn, and salsa. Simmer for 3–5 minutes until heated through and thickened. Season to taste. -
Assemble the Wraps
Warm tortillas for 15–20 seconds to make them flexible.
Spoon beef mixture onto each tortilla. Top with shredded cheese. Add sour cream, jalapeños, or cilantro if using. -
Wrap and Heat (Optional)
Roll up each tortilla like a burrito—fold in the sides and roll tightly.
For a crispy finish, place seam side down in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and cheese is melted. -
Serve
Slice in half and serve hot with extra salsa, sour cream, or a fresh side salad.
Notes
-
Swap beef with ground turkey or plant-based meat for a lighter option.
-
Add rice to stretch the filling for more servings.
-
Great for meal prep—wrap individually and reheat when ready.
