Ingredients

• 1 lb lean ground beef 93/7
• 1 white onion (diced)
• 1 bell pepper (chopped)
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• 1 tbsp honey (for beef filling)
• 1 tbsp chipotle peppers in adobo (minced, for beef filling)
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• salt & pepper (to taste)
• 0.5 lime juice (freshly squeezed)
• 6 Ole Extreme Wellness wraps (10”)
• 1 cup reduced fat Mexican cheese
• cilantro (chopped, divided)
• 0.75 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
• 1 tbsp light mayo
• 1 tsp honey (for crema)
• 1 tsp chipotle peppers in adobo (for crema)
• water (to thin crema)

Steps

1. 1

   Chop the white onion and bell pepper into small, uniform pieces.

2. 2

   Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onions and bell peppers and sauté until they are softened and slightly browned.

3. 3

   Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another minute until fragrant.

4. 4

   Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the lean ground beef to the center.

5. 5

   Season the beef with smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

6. 6

   Brown the beef, breaking it up with a spatula. When it is about 80% cooked through, stir in the tomato paste, 1 tablespoon of minced chipotle peppers, a fresh squeeze of lime juice, and 1 tablespoon of honey.

7. 7

   Continue cooking until the beef is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened and coated the meat. Stir in a portion of the chopped cilantro.

8. 8

   In a small bowl, prepare the Chipotle Crema by whisking together the non-fat Greek yogurt, light mayo, 1 teaspoon of honey, and 1 teaspoon of chipotle peppers in adobo. Add water a teaspoon at a time until the desired drizzling consistency is reached.

9. 9

   Lay out the 6 tortillas. Evenly distribute the beef filling among them, then top each with reduced-fat Mexican cheese and the remaining cilantro.

10. 10

    Fold the sides of each tortilla inward and roll tightly to form a burrito.

11. 11

    Place the burritos seam-side down in a clean skillet over medium-high heat. Toast for 1-2 minutes per side until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy.

12. 12

    Serve the burritos warm with the Chipotle Crema on the side or drizzled on top.
