Description

This Copycat Crunchwrap Supreme brings the iconic fast-food favorite right to your kitchen. Layers of seasoned beef, nacho cheese, crisp tostada, fresh veggies, and melty cheese are all wrapped in a toasted flour tortilla for the ultimate homemade Tex-Mex meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 ounce taco seasoning (1 packet, about 2 tablespoons)
  • 2/3 cup nacho cheese sauce
  • 4 tostada shells or 2 cups tortilla chips
  • 2/3 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 1 cup diced fresh tomatoes
  • 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend


Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until no pink remains. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add 1/3 cup water and taco seasoning to the skillet. Stir and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes or until thickened.
  3. Meanwhile, cut one of the flour tortillas into quarters. Use kitchen scissors or a knife to round the corners.
  4. Place the remaining four tortillas on a plate and cover them with a damp paper towel. Microwave them for 20-30 seconds or until they are warm and pliable.
  5. Add about 1/4 cup of the ground beef mixture to the center of each tortilla. Top with nacho cheese sauce, then place a tostada shell (or a handful of tortilla chips) on top.
  6. Spread a layer of sour cream over the tostada, then top with lettuce, tomatoes, and shredded cheese blend.
  7. Place a quartered tortilla piece in the center and gently fold the edges of the large tortilla around the filling to seal.
  8. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium heat. In batches, add the wrapped crunchwraps seam side down and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until crisp and heated through.
  9. Slice and serve hot with your favorite salsa or dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Warm tortillas before assembling to prevent tearing.
  • Use ground turkey, shredded chicken, or beans for a protein variation.
  • Try adding jalapeños or hot sauce for extra spice.
  • Crunchwraps are best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated in a skillet for a crispy finish.
