What do you need to make a Homemade Crunchwrap Supreme?
- ½ pound of ground beef (mixed with taco seasoning if you prefer)
- ½ cup of nacho sauce
- ¼ cup of diced tomatoes
- ¼ cup of sour cream
- 1 cup of shredded lettuce
- 3 burrito size tortillas
- 3 tostadas (this recipe yields 3 crunchwraps)
- taco sauce (optional)
How to recreate Taco Bell's Crunchwrap Supreme at Home
Step 1: Brown your ground beef (can be subbed for ground turkey, chicken, etc), mixing it with taco seasoning if you desire. I personally am not a huge fan of taco seasoning but my family is so sometimes I use it and sometimes I skip it.
Step 2: Add 2 tablespoons of nacho sauce to the center of the burrito size tortilla and top nacho sauce with your taco meat.
Step 3: Cover a tostada with sour cream and place on top of taco meat, sour cream side up.
Step 4: Top sour cream with lettuce, cheese and then tomatoes, this is where I like to add taco sauce as I prefer it over using taco seasoning.
Step 5: Fold in tortilla layering each edge over the other until burrito shell is closed.
Step 6: In the next step you can use a pan or your air fryer, which is my preferred method, either way, you will want to coat them with a little bit of nonstick spray and place the crunch wrap folded side down. Spray top with just a tiny bit of oil and cook until browned.
Using the air fryer it would be 350 for about 7 minutes then flip and cook on 350 for another 3 minutes.
Tips and FAQ about Homemade Crunchwrap Supremes
- These are best enjoyed fresh as they have fresh veggies and sour cream in the ingredients but they can be eaten as leftovers too. You will just need to reheat them in the microwave. Just know that the lettuce will not be crisp like fresh crunch wraps.
- If for some reason you can't find tostada shells you can substitute them for tortilla chips. Just break them into pieces and layer the same as the tostada. You can even substitute the tostada for Doritos and they are just as yummy.
- Keep your fillings to a minimum otherwise you will run into an issue with overflow.
- If you do run into overflow issues or just want to make an overly filled crunchwrap I have taken torn pieces of another tortilla and layered it on top and then folded around it.
- Some options to make these a bit healthier: You can swap out the tortillas for carb-balanced tortillas, skip the sour cream or replace with yogurt, and/or leave the nacho cheese out.
- If you want to make them fully vegetarian you can swap the ground beef out for refried beans.
- If you like a little more crunch to your homemade crunchwrap supreme then you can fo sure add a extra layer of tostada shell.
