Steps:
- Beat the cream cheese, horseradish, and mustard together in a bowl until well blended.
- Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture over each tortilla. Arrange spinach leaves evenly over the tortillas. Place two slices of roast beef over the cream cheese. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, dividing evenly between tortillas. Starting at one end, gently roll up each tortilla into a tight tube. Wrap with aluminum foil or plastic wrap to keep the rolls tight. Refrigerate at least 4 hours.
- To serve for lunch, unwrap and slice into 2 or 3 pieces. Only cut the rolls you will be using that day so the others do not dry out. To serve for parties, unwrap and slice the rolls diagonally into 1 inch sections, and arrange on a serving platter.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Flank steak or skirt steak are great options for this recipe. These cuts are relatively inexpensive and cook quickly.
- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef helps to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, garlic, soy sauce, and brown sugar.
- Cook the beef quickly: Beef wraps are best when the beef is cooked quickly over high heat. This will help to keep the beef tender and juicy.
- Don't overstuff the wraps: When assembling the wraps, don't overstuff them. This will make them difficult to eat and may cause the wraps to fall apart.
- Get creative with your fillings: There are many different fillings that you can use for beef wraps. Some popular options include lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, and avocado. You can also use cheese, salsa, and sour cream.
Conclusion:
Beef wraps are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and they can also be served as an appetizer or party food. With a little creativity, you can create beef wraps that are sure to please everyone.
