The Best Lightened-up Cheeseburger Wrap

This healthy cheeseburger recipe includes a low-carb wrap filled with lean beef, cheese, and all your favorite hamburger toppings. If you have time, place it on the grill for a couple minutes for that added smokey flavor.

Updated 4/23/18.

Tonight I was in the mood for a burger. Not a turkey burger but a real juicy beef burger. The only problem was I did not want to eat it on a bun nor did I want to go over the top with calories.

Good thing I got inspired to make this absolutely scrumptious “you think this was takeout” cheeseburger wrap.

I simply cooked up some lean ground beef and seasoned with Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, mustard, and other seasonings. Then I layered the beef along with some cheese, a little mayo, ketchup, onions, and lettuce.

Then I rolled it up and enjoy. It’s so juicy and good.

This healthy cheeseburger wrap recipe is only 329 calories and the only proof I need that I can still eat the foods I want without sacrificing taste for calories.

When I first shared this recipe I made it on an indoor grill. However, I’ve made it many times since then without using a grill. So if you don’t have a grill no worries, you can simply roll it up and enjoy. It’s good with or without the grill.

It was also a huge hit with my  kids. I ask my oldest “how was it?” and she said “Mommy it is better than you think.” That’s all I need to give this recipe a permanent place in my weekly menu plan. 🙂

Recipe type: Sandwiches

Cuisine: American

Serves: 5

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef (I used 93/7 organic grass fed beef)
• 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon ketchup
• 1 tablespoon grated parmesan
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• ⅛ teaspoon pepper
• ⅛ teaspoon salt
• 5 100 calorie wraps (I use Flatout Wraps)
• 5 slices american cheese (I use wegmans organic)
• 2 roma tomatoes, sliced
• diced onions
• 1 cup of romaine lettuce
• Additional ketchup (optional)
• Mustard (optional)
• mayo (optional)

Instructions

1. In a medium to large skillet coated with cooking spray cook the beef on medium till almost cooked through but still a little pink (about 7-10 minutes). Break beef up as it cooks.
2. Add Worcestershire, ketchup, grated parmesan, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the beef. Mix together until thoroughly combined.
3. Continue cooking until beef is cooked all the way through and is no longer pink.
4. In the center of the wrap place a slice of cheese and ½ cup of the beef mixture. Add tomato and lettuce. Then if you are using, and I highly recommend you do, add some ketchup, mustard, and a little mayo. Roll up and enjoy.
5. If you're using a grill turn on indoor grill to 350 or you can also use a grill plan. Roll the wrap and place seam side down on grill. Once there are grill marks turn over. Grill for another 2-3 minutes then remove.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the rest of the wraps.

Notes

Freezer instructions: The beef mixture can easily be made ahead of time and frozen. Follow steps 1-3, cool slightly, then put into freezer bag or container for the freezer.
Reheating instructions: Take out night before or day off and thaw in the refrigerator. Warm up in microwave then follow steps 4 and 5.
