Sloppy Joe Mac & Cheese Wrap

How to make Sloppy Joe Mac & Cheese Wrap (Step 1, 2, 3…)

Step 1: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess grease.

Step 2: Add diced onion, green pepper, and garlic to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are softened.

Step 3: Stir in tomato sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat.

Step 4: In a separate pot, combine cooked macaroni, butter, milk, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir over low heat until cheese is melted and the mixture is creamy.

Step 5: Warm the tortillas slightly to make them pliable. Place a generous scoop of mac and cheese and a spoonful of the sloppy joe mixture in the center of each tortilla.

Step 6: Fold the sides over and roll up tightly like a burrito.

Step 7: Optional: Toast the wraps in a skillet for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.

Recipe Variations and Possible Substitutions

• Swap ground beef for ground chicken, turkey, or plant-based meat alternatives.
• Use different cheese varieties like mozzarella, pepper jack, or a blend.
• Add diced jalapeños for extra heat.
• Stir in some BBQ sauce for a smoky flavor twist.
• Use whole wheat or flavored tortillas to change up the wrap.

Storage and Reheating Tips

• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, wrap in foil and warm in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10-15 minutes or microwave for 1-2 minutes.
• Not ideal for freezing once assembled, but you can freeze the mac and cheese and sloppy joe mixture separately.
