Homemade Crunch Wrap Supreme

A homemade Crunchwrap Supreme is a delicious and customizable Tex-Mex-inspired dish that you can prepare in your own kitchen. It’s a popular menu item at Taco Bell, but making it at home allows you to use fresh ingredients and adjust the flavors to your liking. Here’s a basic recipe to get you started:

INGREDIENTS:

For the filling:

1 pound ground beef or ground turkey

1 packet of taco seasoning mix (or use homemade seasoning)

1/2 cup water

1 cup refried beans

1 cup shredded lettuce

1 cup diced tomatoes

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup sour cream

4 large flour tortillas (burrito-sized)

4 tostada shells or flat, crispy taco shells

Cooking oil for frying

Optional: Sliced jalapeños, diced onions, guacamole, hot sauce, or other toppings of your choice

DIRECTIONS:

In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef or turkey, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.

Add the taco seasoning mix and 1/2 cup of water to the cooked meat. Stir well and simmer for a few minutes until the mixture thickens and is well-seasoned. Set it aside.

In a separate pan, heat a little oil over medium-high heat. Place a tortilla in the pan for a few seconds to soften it, then remove it.

Lay out a tortilla, and in the center, place a spoonful of refried beans, spreading it out to form a circle.

Add a portion of the seasoned meat on top of the beans, followed by a tostada shell (or flat taco shell), which will help keep the Crunchwrap stable.

Layer on your choice of toppings – shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, and any optional ingredients you prefer.

To fold the Crunchwrap, start with one edge of the tortilla and fold it toward the center. Continue folding in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, making sure the filling is enclosed within the folds, creating a hexagonal shape.

Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and add a bit of oil. Place the folded Crunchwrap, seam side down, onto the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the tortilla becomes crispy and golden brown. Then, flip it and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes.

Remove from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling.

Slice your homemade Crunchwrap Supremes in half and serve them hot with your favorite sauces and additional toppings.

Enjoy your homemade Crunchwrap Supreme, which can be customized with various ingredients to suit your taste!
