Ingredients Overview

• Ground Beef (1 lb): This serves as the hearty base of your burrito, offering rich, savory flavor. Opt for lean ground beef to reduce excess grease, ensuring a balanced texture.
• Diced Onion (1 cup): Adds a touch of sweetness and depth to the beef, creating a flavorful foundation for the filling.
• Shredded Cheddar Cheese (1 cup): The sharpness of cheddar perfectly complements the beef, melting into a gooey, delicious layer that ties all the ingredients together.
• Diced Tomatoes (½ cup): Fresh and juicy, tomatoes provide a burst of color and a slight tang that balances the richness of the beef and cheese.
• Sliced Jalapeños (¼ cup, optional): For those who love a bit of heat, jalapeños add a spicy kick that elevates the flavor profile.
• Large Flour Tortillas (4): Soft and pliable, these tortillas wrap around the filling, holding everything together in a neat, handheld package.
• Mayonnaise (¼ cup): Forms the creamy base of the sauce, adding richness and smoothness.
• Ketchup (2 tablespoons): Adds a hint of sweetness and a familiar tang that complements the mayonnaise.
• Mustard (1 tablespoon): Provides a subtle sharpness and depth to the sauce, balancing the flavors.
• Salt and Pepper: Essential for seasoning the beef and enhancing the overall flavor of the dish.
• Fresh Lettuce: Crisp and refreshing, lettuce adds a cool contrast to the warm, savory filling, bringing the burrito to life.
