Ingredients
  

1 lb ground turkey

1 can (15 oz) chili beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup salsa (your favorite variety)

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 tablespoon olive oil

6 large flour tortillas

Fresh cilantro, finely chopped (for garnish)

Sour cream (for serving)

Sliced jalapeños (optional, for extra heat)

Instructions
 

Cook the Turkey: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon or spatula, until it is browned and fully cooked, approximately 6-8 minutes.

    Add Spices: Once the turkey is cooked through, stir in the ground cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed and continue to cook for an additional 2 minutes to enhance the flavors.

      Combine Ingredients: Gently fold in the drained chili beans and salsa. Stir everything together, allowing it to simmer for about 5 minutes. This step lets the flavors meld beautifully.

        Melt the Cheese: Evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the turkey mixture. Cover the skillet and let it cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.

          Prepare the Wraps: On a clean surface, lay a flour tortilla flat. Spoon a generous serving of the turkey and chili cheese mixture into the center of the tortilla, leaving about an inch of space around the edges for easy wrapping.

            Wrap Them Up: To wrap, fold in the sides of the tortilla towards the center, then roll from the bottom up to seal the filling inside, ensuring a tight wrap.

              Toast (Optional): Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam side down in the skillet and toast for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and heated thoroughly.

                Serve: Once toasted, remove the wraps from the skillet. Slice them in half if desired. Serve immediately with a generous dollop of sour cream, garnished with chopped cilantro, and sliced jalapeños for those who enjoy a little extra heat.
