Copycat Crunchwrap Supreme Recipe

Ground beef: The main protein component, providing a rich and savory base for the filling.

Taco seasoning: A blend of spices that adds a classic Mexican flavor to the ground beef.

Flour tortillas: Large, soft tortillas that serve as the outer wrap, holding all the ingredients together.

Corn tortillas: Smaller, crispy tortillas that add a satisfying crunch to the center of the wrap.

Nacho cheese sauce: A creamy, cheesy sauce that adds a rich, indulgent layer to the filling.

Sour cream: Adds a tangy, creamy contrast to the other ingredients.

Shredded lettuce: Provides a fresh, crisp texture and balances the richness of the other components.

Diced tomatoes: Adds a juicy, fresh element to the wrap.

Shredded cheese: Melts into the filling, adding another layer of cheesy goodness.

To ensure your crunchwraps stay sealed and don't fall apart during cooking, make sure to warm the flour tortillas thoroughly so they are pliable and easy to fold. When folding the tortilla, press down firmly on each pleat to create a tight seal. Additionally, cooking the crunchwrap seam-side down first helps to lock in the shape and prevent it from opening up.

• ground beef - Substitute with ground turkey: Ground turkey is a leaner option and can be seasoned similarly to mimic the flavor of ground beef.

• taco seasoning - Substitute with homemade spice blend: Combine chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and oregano to create a similar flavor profile.

• large flour tortillas - Substitute with whole wheat tortillas: Whole wheat tortillas offer more fiber and nutrients while maintaining a similar texture.

• small corn tortillas - Substitute with small flour tortillas: Small flour tortillas can be used if you prefer a softer texture compared to corn tortillas.

• nacho cheese sauce - Substitute with queso blanco: Queso blanco provides a creamy and cheesy flavor that works well as a substitute for nacho cheese sauce.

• sour cream - Substitute with Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt is a healthier alternative with a similar tangy flavor and creamy texture.

• shredded lettuce - Substitute with shredded cabbage: Shredded cabbage adds a crunchy texture and can be a more nutritious option.

• diced tomatoes - Substitute with salsa: Salsa can add a bit more flavor and spice compared to plain diced tomatoes.

• shredded cheese - Substitute with vegan cheese: Vegan cheese is a dairy-free alternative that can melt and provide a similar cheesy flavor.

• Allow the crunchwraps to cool completely before storing to prevent condensation, which can make them soggy.
• Wrap each crunchwrap individually in aluminum foil or plastic wrap to maintain freshness and prevent them from sticking together.
• Place the wrapped crunchwraps in an airtight container or zip-top bag to further protect them from moisture and odors in the refrigerator.
• Store in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, consider freezing.
• To freeze, wrap each crunchwrap tightly in plastic wrap and then in a layer of aluminum foil to prevent freezer burn.
• Place the wrapped crunchwraps in a freezer-safe container or zip-top bag and label with the date. They can be frozen for up to 2 months.
• To reheat from the refrigerator, unwrap the crunchwrap and place it on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, or until heated through.
• For a crispier texture, reheat in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through.
• To reheat from frozen, unwrap the crunchwrap and microwave on a microwave-safe plate for 3-4 minutes, flipping halfway through. Alternatively, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and then reheat as you would from the refrigerator.
• For the best texture, reheat in a skillet or oven after microwaving to restore the crunch.

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Wrap each crunchwrap in aluminum foil to prevent it from drying out. Place them on a baking sheet and heat for about 15-20 minutes, or until warmed through.

• For a quicker method, use a skillet. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the crunchwrap seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until heated through and crispy.

• If you prefer using a microwave, place the crunchwrap on a microwave-safe plate. Cover it with a damp paper towel to keep it moist. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, checking halfway through to ensure even heating.

• For an air fryer, preheat to 350°F (175°C). Place the crunchwrap in the basket and heat for 3-5 minutes, or until crispy and warmed through. This method helps retain the crunchiness of the tortilla.

• If you have a toaster oven, preheat it to 350°F (175°C). Place the crunchwrap directly on the rack or on a baking sheet. Heat for 10-15 minutes, or until thoroughly warmed and crispy.
