Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (or ground turkey/chicken)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- Large flour tortillas or egg-roll wrappers
- Nacho cheese sauce
- Diced green and/or red peppers (optional)
- Seasoned taco-style seasoning
- Shredded lettuce
- Crushed tortilla or corn chips
- Sour cream
- Optional: sliced olives or jalapeños
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and chopped onion. Cook until browned and softened, then drain excess fat.
- Add diced peppers (if using) and cook until softened. Stir in taco seasoning until evenly coated.
- In a bowl, mix nacho cheese sauce with optional canned tomatoes and green chilies to create a creamy sauce.
- Lay out tortillas or wrappers. Spoon cheese mixture down the center, then add beef mixture, lettuce, crushed chips, sour cream, and other desired toppings.
- Fold in sides and roll tightly from bottom up to seal.
- Heat a skillet with a bit of oil over medium heat. Cook each roll seam-side down first, turning until golden and crispy on all sides.
- Let rest briefly before slicing or serving. Serve hot with dips like salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
Notes
- Do not overfill to avoid bursting during cooking.
- Use egg-roll wrappers for a crispier version or bake instead of fry for a lighter option.
- Freeze uncooked rolls for up to a month and cook from frozen.
- Reheat in oven or air fryer for best texture.
