Description

A hearty and indulgent wrap combining the bold, tangy flavors of Sloppy Joes with creamy macaroni and cheese, all rolled in a soft tortilla for a comforting handheld meal.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 cups cooked macaroni
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat.
  2. Add diced onion and green bell pepper to the skillet; cook until softened.
  3. Stir in ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5–7 minutes until thickened.
  4. In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in milk and shredded cheddar until smooth. Add cooked macaroni and mix well to coat.
  5. Lay out tortillas. Spoon a layer of mac & cheese down the center, then top with Sloppy Joe mixture.
  6. Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly into a wrap.
  7. Serve warm, optionally toasting the wraps on a skillet for a crispy finish.

Notes

  • Use leftover mac & cheese for quicker prep.
  • Try using barbecue sauce instead of ketchup for a smokier flavor.
  • For a lighter version, substitute ground turkey or chicken.
