Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and chopped onion until the beef is browned and onions are soft. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Drain any excess fat and let the beef mixture cool slightly.
Soften each rice paper wrap by soaking in warm water for 15–20 seconds.
Lay the softened wrap flat and add one slice of cheddar, 2–3 tablespoons of beef mixture, shredded lettuce, and pickle slices in the center.
Fold in the sides and roll up tightly like a burrito. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top if using.
Bake for 20–25 minutes or until golden and lightly crispy.
Let cool slightly and serve with a dipping sauce such as Big Mac-style sauce (mayo, mustard, ketchup, relish, vinegar).

Notes

Use ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.

Swap in lentils or tofu for a vegetarian version.

Add sliced tomatoes or jalapeños for extra flavor.

Reheat in the oven to maintain crispness—avoid microwaving.

Not suitable for freezing due to rice paper texture changes.
