Ingredients

Scale

For the Ground Beef:

  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • ½ tsp chili flakes
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

For the Garlic Hot Honey Feta Cream:

  • ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 12 tsp hot sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

For the Wraps:

  • 46 tortillas or flatbreads

For the Fresh Fillings:

  • 1 cup lettuce or mixed greens
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ½ cucumber, sliced
  • ¼ red onion, thinly sliced
  • Optional: fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Sauté Aromatics: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Cook Ground Beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks for about 6-8 minutes.
  3. Spice and Simmer: Stir in smoked paprika, cumin, chili flakes, salt, black pepper, tomato paste, and lemon juice. Cook for an additional 2–3 minutes to blend flavors and thicken the mixture slightly.
  4. Prepare Feta Cream: In a bowl, combine crumbled feta cheese, Greek yogurt, honey, hot sauce (start with 1 tsp and adjust to taste), minced garlic, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  5. Warm Tortillas: Heat tortillas or flatbreads on a dry skillet or microwave just until soft and pliable.
  6. Assemble Wraps: Lay out the tortillas and layer lettuce or mixed greens, spoon on the spiced ground beef mixture, then add fresh cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and red onion.
  7. Drizzle and Garnish: Generously drizzle the garlic hot honey feta cream over the fillings, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, then fold and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of chili flakes and hot sauce according to your preferred spice level.
  • Use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas to tailor to dietary needs.
  • Honey can be substituted with agave syrup for a different sweetener option.
  • Leftover ground beef mixture can be stored in fridge for up to 3 days and reheated.
  • Try adding other fresh veggies like bell peppers or avocado for variety.
