Instructions

Brown the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, sauté diced onions until soft. Add the ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned. Drain excess grease.
Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix mayo, ketchup, mustard, and sweet relish. Adjust the ratios to your taste—make it yours!
Combine the Filling: Add a few spoonfuls of the burger sauce to the cooked beef and mix well. Stir in shredded cheese until melty and combined. Remove from heat.
Stuff the Flatbreads: Lay out your flatbreads and spoon the cheesy beef mixture down the center. Add pickles and any extras you like.
Fold and Cook: Fold the flatbreads over like a taco or burrito. Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and cook each flatbread until golden and slightly crispy on both sides—about 2–3 minutes per side.
Serve Warm: Cut in half and serve with extra sauce for dipping. Best enjoyed right off the skillet.
