Big Mac Wraps Recipe

Introduction

Big Mac Wraps are a fun and easy twist on the classic burger, perfect for a quick meal that’s packed with flavor. These wraps combine all your favorite Big Mac ingredients rolled into a convenient handheld delight. They’re crispy, cheesy, and incredibly satisfying.

A black bowl holds a layered dish starting with a base of fresh curly green lettuce. On top of the lettuce are slices of light green cucumber and small red tomato pieces scattered around. Next is a crispy, thin patty with a golden melted cheese topping that looks soft and gooey. Two very melted orange cheese dollops sit on the patty’s right side. Around the patty’s edge is a white lightly toasted flatbread ring that surrounds the layers. The dish is set on a white marbled texture surface with a few small drops of orange sauce nearby.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, add a slice of melted American cheese inside before folding the wrap.
  • Use whole wheat tortillas for a healthier option.
  • Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter alternative to beef.
  • Add a few slices of tomato for a fresh twist.

Storage

Store leftover Big Mac Wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat to keep the wrap crispy, or use a microwave for convenience, though the wrap may soften.

How to Serve

In the image, a layered dish is presented in a white bowl with a dark interior, set on a white marbled surface. The bottom layer is fresh green curly lettuce with rough edges, mixed with small slices of green cucumbers and red cherry tomatoes. On top of this leafy bed is a thick, browned beef patty with a coarse textured surface. Sitting over the patty are two melted cheese slices: an orange cheddar cheese slice with a smooth, shiny surface, and a white cheese slice slightly melted and creamy. Surrounding the patty and cheese is a soft, white flatbread wrapped partially around the central ingredients. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

  • You can add a little garlic powder or onion powder to the beef for extra flavor.
  • Feel free to substitute the cheeses with your favorites or reduce the amount for lower fat.
  • If you want the wraps spicier, add some chopped jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the special sauce.
