Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 tbsp taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup water
- 5 large flour tortillas
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup diced tomatoes (optional)
- 0.25 cup diced green onions (optional)
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
Instructions
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until fully browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.
Add the taco seasoning and water to the cooked beef. Stir to combine and let simmer for 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese until smooth and well combined.
Spread a layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over one side of a flour tortilla, covering the entire surface.
Sprinkle some of the taco-seasoned ground beef over the cream cheese layer. Be sure to spread it out evenly across the tortilla.
If desired, add a small sprinkle of diced tomatoes, green onions, and cilantro for extra flavor.
Roll the tortilla tightly into a log shape. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down on a cutting board and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to firm up.
Using a sharp knife, slice each tortilla roll into 1-inch pieces to create bite-sized roll-ups.
Arrange the taco roll-ups on a serving platter and garnish with additional shredded cheese, green onions, or cilantro as desired. Enjoy immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
