Nacho Cheese Sauce:

• 1 cup (240ml) milk
• 1 1/2 cups (170g) shredded cheddar cheese

• 1/2 cup (60g) sour cream (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare Beef Filling:
   • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic until the beef is browned and the onion is translucent. Drain excess fat.
   • Add the taco seasoning mix and water to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Set aside.
2. Prepare Nacho Cheese Sauce:
   • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
   • Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the mixture is bubbling and slightly golden.
   • Gradually whisk in the milk, continuing to whisk until the mixture is smooth and thickened.
   • Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and nacho cheese dip, if using, until melted and smooth.
   • Add paprika, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
3. Assemble Wraps:
   • Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave or on a skillet.
   • Spread a generous amount of nacho cheese sauce in the center of each tortilla.
   • Top with the seasoned beef mixture, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños, and black olives, if using.
   • Add a dollop of sour cream on top, if desired.
4. Wrap:
   • Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up from the bottom to the top, securing all the fillings inside.
5. Serve:
   • Serve immediately, or warm the wraps in a skillet for a few minutes to make them crispy.
