Step 1
Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 sliced onion and cook until soft and golden, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add 2 cups shredded beef and 1 tsp garlic powder to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until heated through and slightly crispy, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Warm 4 large flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable, about 30 seconds each.
Step 4
Divide the beef mixture among the tortillas. Top each with 1/4 cup shredded cheese, 1/2 cup lettuce, and 1/4 cup salsa.
Step 5
Fold in the sides and roll up tightly. Serve immediately, with extra salsa if desired.
Step 6
Optional: add a squeeze of lime or a sprinkle of cumin to the beef for extra flavor.
