Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

Yes. I often prep the sauce and cook the beef in the morning. Refrigerate them separately. Finish assembly just before serving to keep everything fresh. It saves time and keeps textures bright.

Is this recipe kid-friendly?

Absolutely. My kids love to help spread the sauce and add their own pickles. Keep the sauce on the side if your family prefers less dressing. Letting kids assemble gives them ownership and makes dinner quieter in minutes.

What if I do not have pickles?

You can use finely chopped gherkins, cornichons, or even a sprinkle of capers for a salty, briny note. If you like a bright sweet contrast, sliced apples add an unexpected but delicious crunch.

Can I make this gluten-free?

Yes. Use a gluten-free tortilla and verify that your mustard and other ingredients are gluten-free. The steps remain the same. Toasting the tortilla gently still helps with texture.

How long will leftovers keep?

Store wraps in the fridge for up to 3 days. The sauce keeps even longer, up to a week. Freeze assembled wraps for up to one month, but add fresh lettuce after thawing for the best texture.

Instructions

Prepare the Special Sauce: Combine mayonnaise, dill pickles, yellow mustard, white vinegar, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder in a bowl. Stir until thickened and taste for seasoning.
Cook the Beef: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until golden. Add ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned. Stir in half the special sauce.
Assemble the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat, spread remaining sauce, spoon on warm beef, then add lettuce and cheese. Top with pickles if using.
Wrap and Serve: Fold the sides and roll the tortilla snugly. Heat in a skillet seam-side down until crisp. Serve warm with extra sauce for dipping.

Notes

For a lighter version, swap out mayonnaise with Greek yogurt. Use lean turkey or plant-based substitutes for a vegetarian option. Leftovers store well and taste even better the next day.
