Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 8 large flour tortillas
- 2 cup cooked macaroni pasta
- 2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup cooked crispy bacon, crumbled
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 2 tablespoon butter, melted
Instructions
1. Step 1: Cook the Beef – Begin by cooking the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Season the beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, and cook until it’s nicely browned. Drain any excess grease, then stir in the ketchup and mustard. Set the cooked beef mixture aside.
2. Step 2: Prepare the Filling – In a large bowl, combine the cooked macaroni pasta, shredded cheddar cheese, and crumbled bacon. Add the cooked beef mixture and stir everything together until well-incorporated.
3. Step 3: Assemble the Rolls – Lay out each flour tortilla and scoop a generous amount of the mac and cheese beef mixture onto the center. Carefully roll up the tortilla like a burrito, making sure to tuck in the sides as you go. Place the rolled-up tortillas seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Step 4: Brush with Butter – To achieve a golden, crispy finish, brush the tops of the Mac and Cheese Bacon Rolls with the melted butter.
5. Step 5: Bake and Serve – Preheat your oven to 375°F and bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes, or until they’re heated through and slightly crispy. Serve these cheesy, savory delights warm and enjoy the perfect blend of comfort and indulgence.
