Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams lean ground beef
- 4 pieces whole wheat tortillas
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
- 1 large lime
- 2 tablespoons light sour cream
Instructions
Chop the red and green bell peppers into thin strips, finely dice the red onion, and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and diced onion, sautéing for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking the meat into crumbles, until browned and cooked through.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet, then mix in the bell peppers. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until peppers are tender.
Stir in the low-sodium soy sauce and ground black pepper, and cook for another minute to combine all flavors.
Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a microwave or skillet for about 10-15 seconds to make them pliable.
To assemble the wraps, place a lettuce leaf on each tortilla followed by a quarter of the beef and vegetable mixture.
Top each wrap with a dollop of light sour cream, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll up from the bottom to create a wrap. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-fat savory beef wraps.
