For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the beef mixture for a subtle kick. If you prefer, you can substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef. Garnish with chopped peanuts or sesame seeds for added crunch and visual appeal. For easy serving, prepare the beef mixture and toppings in advance and let everyone assemble their own wraps.
