INGREDIENTS:

  • 12 oz lean ground beef
  • Half tsp garlic powder
  • 4 small low-calorie whole-wheat tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • Half cup diced tomato
  • 1 oz shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
  • Half cup finely diced onion
  • 2 tsp fat-free Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard

  • 2 tsp reduced-sugar ketchup
  • Quarter tsp salt
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Quarter tsp smoked paprika
  • Cooking spray
  • Quarter tsp black pepper

INGREDIENT NOTES:

LEAN GROUND BEEF:

  • We use this as the main protein in the tacos, and it keeps the recipe light. Beef gives a classic juicy cheeseburger taste to the filling. You may use extra-lean ground turkey as per your preference.

LOW-CALORIE WHOLE-WHEAT TORTILLAS:

  • These tortillas hold the beef, cheese, and vegetables together. They keep the taco portion controlled as well. You may use low-calorie flour tortillas as another choice.

REDUCED-FAT CHEDDAR CHEESE:

  • It gives a classic cheeseburger taste to the recipe. Finely shredded cheese melts quickly and spreads throughout the filling. You may use reduced-fat mozzarella as a substitute.

REDUCED-SUGAR KETCHUP:

  • This ketchup gives a sweet and tangy taste of the cheeseburger. It keeps the sauce low in sugar and calories. You may use no-sugar-added ketchup as another idea.

FAT-FREE GREEK YOGURT:

  • It makes the burger sauce creamy without using mayonnaise. Greek yogurt gives a little extra protein as well. You may use light mayonnaise as a replacement.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. First, mix fat-free Greek yogurt, reduced-sugar ketchup, and mustard in a small bowl.
  2. Cook the beef, onion powder, diced onion, black pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and salt in the skillet on medium flame for 8 minutes.
  3. Break the beef with a spatula & cook till it gets lightly browned.
  4. Include Worcestershire sauce in the beef and cook for 2 minutes so the flavors blend well.
  5. Lay flour tortillas flat and spread a small amount of burger sauce on the center of the tortillas.
  6. Divide the cooked beef mixture evenly between the tortillas and sprinkle reduced-fat cheddar evenly on it.
  7. Keep the cheese toward the center and fold the tortillas in half.
  8. Gently press them so the filling stays inside, then warm the skillet on medium flame.
  9. Spray the skillet with cooking spray then cook tacos for 3 minutes per side.
  10. Open the tacos lightly, then add shredded lettuce and diced tomato inside.
  11. Drizzle a small amount of light burger sauce on top and serve immediately.
