Ingredients

Scale

Mediterranean Ground Beef

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Whipped Lemon Honey Feta

  • 1 cup feta cheese
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 12 tablespoons honey (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon warm water (if needed for thinning)

For Assembly

  • 4 large flour tortillas or flatbreads
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ½ cup cucumber, diced
  • ¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Cook the Ground Beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Then add ground beef, oregano, paprika, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook for 7–9 minutes, breaking apart the meat, until fully browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat if necessary. Stir in fresh lemon juice during the last minute to enhance the flavor.
  2. Prepare the Whipped Lemon Honey Feta: In a food processor or blender, combine feta cheese, Greek yogurt, cream cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, and honey. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add a tablespoon of warm water if needed to achieve a spreadable consistency.
  3. Warm the Wraps: Lightly warm the flour tortillas or flatbreads in a dry skillet or the oven until they are soft and pliable, making them easier to fold and roll.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Spread a generous layer of the whipped lemon honey feta over each warmed tortilla. Top with the seasoned ground beef, followed by shredded lettuce, cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, sliced red onion, and chopped fresh parsley for freshness and crunch.
  5. Wrap & Serve: Fold the sides of each tortilla inward and roll tightly to encase the fillings. Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately for best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Adjust the honey in the feta spread to your preferred level of sweetness.
  • For a gluten-free option, substitute the flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps or lettuce leaves.
  • The whipped feta spread can be prepared in advance and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
  • Drain the beef well to avoid soggy wraps.
  • Add a drizzle of extra olive oil or a squeeze of fresh lemon on the finished wrap for extra zest.
