For the Crunchwrap Supreme
- Ground Meat – any ground beef or ground meat works here; it’s the savory base that brings classic taco flavor.
- Taco Seasoning Mix – this delivers the signature Tex-Mex taste with zero effort. Just follow the packet for water amounts.
- Flour Tortillas (Burrito Size) – large tortillas are essential so you can wrap, fold, and seal everything neatly.
- Tostada Shells – these add the signature crunch in the center. Without them, it’s just a soft wrap!
- Sour Cream – adds cool creaminess that balances the warm, seasoned beef.
- Shredded Lettuce – brings a fresh, crisp bite to the layers.
- Diced Tomato – adds juiciness and a pop of freshness.
- Shredded Mexican Cheese Blend – melts beautifully and ties all the fillings together.
- Nacho Cheese – the rich, gooey layer that makes each Crunchwrap taste extra indulgent.
Homemade Crunchwrap Supreme Dinner
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground meat
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix
- 6 burrito size flour tortillas
- 6 tostada shells
- 1 cup of sour cream
- 2 cups of shredded lettuce
- 1 diced tomato
- 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
- Nacho Cheese
Instructions
- In a skillet or large cooking pan, cook and crumble the ground beef over medium-high heat. When it is no longer pink, drain the grease.
- Place meat back into the pan and stir the taco seasoning mix as well as the water it calls for on the packet. Cook according to the package instructions.
- Warm up the nacho cheese sauce in the microwave and set aside.
- Place the flour tortillas on a plate and warm in the microwave for about 20 seconds.
- Lay one tortilla on a flat surface. Spread a couple of tablespoons of nacho cheese in the middle of the tortilla.
- Place ½ cup of taco meat on top of the nacho cheese.
- Next, add the tostada shell, a thin layer of sour cream, lettuce, tomato, and lastly, the shredded Mexican cheese.
- To fold into the actual crunchwrap, start with the bottom of the tortilla and fold the edge up to the center of the fillings. Keep doing that, folding as tight as possible, as you work your way around the tortilla.
- Spray another skillet or cooking pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Place the crunchwrap supreme, seam-side down, onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 min., or until golden brown.
- Flip over and cook the other side for another 2-3 min or until golden brown.
- Cook the rest of your crunchwraps and eat immediately.

1. My Crunchwraps keep bursting—what am I doing wrong?
Overfilling! It’s the #1 culprit. You don’t need mountains of filling for these to taste incredible. Keep the layers modest and neat, and you’ll get perfectly sealed, golden Crunchwraps every time. Think taco, not burrito on steroids.
2. The tortillas keep tearing when I fold them. Any tricks?
Yes — warm them. Cold tortillas = cracks everywhere. A quick 15–20 seconds in the microwave makes them soft, floppy, and super easy to fold. Don’t skip this step… trust me, it’s a game changer.
3. I only have regular-sized tortillas. Can I still make these?
Absolutely. Just cut an extra tortilla into a little circular “patch” and use it to cover the filling before folding. Voilà — you’ve DIY’d the extra tortilla surface area you need. Works a treat!
4. Can I cook the Crunchwraps without frying them in oil?
Yep! They crisp beautifully in a dry skillet or baked in the oven. Just give them a light spray with oil so they get that signature golden shell. Much less fuss, still super crunchy.
5. Can I make a vegetarian version?
100%. Swap the beef for black beans, refried beans, lentils, or plant-based crumbles. Everything else stays the same. Bonus: vegetarian Crunchwraps tend to hold together even better because the filling is softer. Win–win!
