Ingredients

For the Filling

1 pound ground beef Fresh, juicy beef that brings rich flavor.
1 teaspoon salt Essential for enhancing the meat's natural flavor.
1/2 teaspoon black pepper Adds a subtle kick to your beef mixture.
1 teaspoon garlic powder Provides an aromatic richness.
1 teaspoon onion powder Offers a sweet and savory depth.
1/4 cup burger sauce A zesty additive for extra flavor.
1/4 cup diced onions Crunchy and sharp for added freshness.
to taste pickles Optional, adds a tangy crunch.

For the Skewers

4 large flour tortillas Soft and flexible for wrapping.
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese Creamy and gooey, melts beautifully.
for garnish chopped green onions Adds freshness to the dish.

Method

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 400°F if baking.
In a bowl, combine ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Spread a thin layer of the ground beef mixture evenly across each tortilla.
Sprinkle shredded cheese over the beef layer.
Add diced onions, pickles, and burger sauce.
Roll each tortilla into a log shape, ensuring it is firm.
Slice each roll into pinwheels about 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick.
Thread pinwheels onto skewers closely, but not squished.

Cooking

Place the skewers on a baking sheet, grill, griddle, or skillet.
Cook until the beef is done, tortillas are crispy, and cheese is melted, about 10-15 minutes.

Serving

Garnish with chopped green onions and serve with extra burger sauce.

Notes

For variations, use a mix of cheeses or substitute ground turkey. Let the beef marinate for more flavor or serve with sides like fries or salads.
