2.	In a large skillet, cook ground beef on medium-high heat until brown, stirring occasionally. Drain the fat.
3.	Add salt, scallions, and onions to the skillet and cook until the onions are translucent.
4.	Spread the beef mixture evenly over each rectangle of dough. Drain the green chilies and layer them evenly over the beef. Sprinkle shredded cheese over everything.
5.	Roll up each rectangle of dough, starting at the short end, to enclose the beef and cheese mixture. Seal the edges by pinching them together.
6.	Bake the wrap-ups for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
