Ingredients

Scale

Beef Filling

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Wrap and Assembly

  • 8 rice paper wraps
  • 8 slices low-fat cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup sliced pickles
  • Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking the rolls.
  2. Cook Beef Mixture: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with the finely chopped onion until the beef is fully cooked and onions are softened. Season the mixture with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Drain any excess fat and allow the mixture to cool slightly so it does not tear the rice paper during assembly.
  3. Soften Rice Paper: Soak each rice paper wrap in warm water for 15-20 seconds until pliable. Lay each softened wrap flat on a clean towel or cutting board for easy assembly.
  4. Assemble Rolls: In the center of each rice paper, place one slice of low-fat cheddar cheese, then add 2-3 tablespoons of the cooked beef mixture, a small handful of shredded lettuce, and a few slices of pickles. Fold in the sides and roll tightly to encase the filling, ensuring the seam is placed down onto the lined baking sheet for stability.
  5. Add Finishing Touch: Optionally, sprinkle sesame seeds on top of each assembled roll for extra texture and visual appeal.
  6. Bake Rolls: Bake the prepared rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the rice paper wraps turn golden brown and become lightly crispy.
  7. Serve: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. These pairs well with your favorite low-sugar ketchup or a Big Mac-style dipping sauce for added flavor.

Notes

  • Make sure not to soak the rice paper too long or it may become too fragile to roll.
  • Drain excess fat from the beef to avoid soggy wraps.
  • Use low-fat cheese to keep the recipe lower in fat and calories.
  • Feel free to customize with additional Big Mac toppings such as a small amount of diced tomato or extra pickles.
  • These rolls are best served warm for crispy texture; reheating can be done in an oven or toaster oven.
