  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 large flour tortillas

Seasonings

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Cheeses

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Garlic Butter

  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

Optional Garnish

  • Sliced pickles, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and either line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. This ensures the rollups won’t stick and will bake evenly.
  2. Cook the Beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and cooked through—about 7–8 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  3. Season the Beef: Add Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the cooked beef. Stir well to combine, then remove from heat and let it cool slightly to prevent melting the tortillas during assembly.
  4. Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the minced garlic until thoroughly combined. Set the mixture aside; this will be brushed on the rollups for flavor and crispiness.
  5. Assemble the Rollups: Lay out the four tortillas on a clean surface. Evenly spread the cooled beef mixture over each tortilla. Sprinkle cheddar and mozzarella cheeses over the beef, dividing them evenly among the tortillas.
  6. Roll and Bake: Starting from one side, roll each tortilla up tightly, tucking in the sides to enclose the filling. Place the rollups seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each one generously with the garlic butter mixture. Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Serve: Allow the rollups to cool slightly before serving. Slice into pinwheels, if desired, and garnish with sliced pickles for a classic cheeseburger touch. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef for a lighter option.
  • Experiment with different cheeses like Monterey Jack or pepper jack for extra flavor.
  • Add sautéed onions, mushrooms, or diced pickles inside the rollups for variety.
  • The rollups reheat well in the oven or air fryer—perfect for meal prep or leftovers.
  • For extra crispiness, broil the rollups for 1–2 minutes at the end.
