Method
Cook the chopped onion in a skillet over medium heat, stirring until it begins to brown.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until fully browned.
Reduce heat to low and stir in the taco sauce, tomato paste, and reduced‑fat cream cheese (or light sour cream) until the mixture becomes creamy.
Prepare the sauce: combine light sour cream, Frank’s RedHot, smoked paprika, garlic powder, a pinch of salt, and lime juice in a bowl; thin with water, adding a teaspoon at a time, until drizzle‑ready.
Lay out the eight wraps, divide the beef mixture evenly among them, drizzle the sauce on top, fold the sides in, and roll each wrap tightly from the bottom.
Tips while you cook
- Brown onion first
- Cook the chopped onion until it begins to brown before adding the beef.
- Thin sauce gradually
- Add water a teaspoon at a time to reach a drizzle‑able consistency.
- Roll tightly
- Fold the sides in and roll each wrap tightly from the bottom after adding the sauce.
