Instructions
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks, until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Season the beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until the spices are evenly distributed.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the browned beef.
Allow the cheese to melt over the beef, stirring lightly to combine, about 2-3 minutes.
Prepare the lettuce wraps by laying out the romaine lettuce leaves on a clean surface.
Distribute the chopped cheese mixture evenly among the lettuce leaves.
Top each lettuce wrap with slices of tomato and pickles.
In a small bowl, mix the Dijon mustard and low-carb mayonnaise together until smooth.
Drizzle the mustard mayonnaise sauce over the assembled sandwiches.
Carefully fold each lettuce wrap to enclose the filling like a taco.
