Description

A homemade classic with seasoned beef, nacho cheese, crispy tostada, veggies, and cheese, wrapped in a tortilla and grilled to perfection!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning mix
  • 4 large (10-inch) flour tortillas
  • 4 small (4-inch) flour tortillas or tortilla quarters
  • 1 cup nacho cheese sauce
  • 4 tostada shells
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend

 

  • Vegetable oil, for cooking

Instructions

  • Cook the Ground Beef:

    • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks.
    • Drain excess fat, then stir in taco seasoning and water per package instructions. Simmer until thickened, then remove from heat.
  • Assemble the Crunchwraps:

    • Lay a large flour tortilla on a flat surface. Add a portion of seasoned beef in the center.
    • Drizzle nacho cheese sauce over the beef.
    • Place a tostada shell over the beef and cheese.
    • Spread sour cream over the tostada shell.
    • Add shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheese.
    • Place a small tortilla or tortilla quarter over the fillings.
    • Fold the edges of the large tortilla up and over the center, creating pleats to seal the wrap.

 

  • Cook the Crunchwraps:

    • Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with vegetable oil.
    • Place the Crunchwrap seam-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
    • Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Repeat with the remaining Crunchwraps

Notes

  • Swap ground beef for shredded chicken or black beans for a different variation.
  • For extra crunch, lightly toast the tostada shells before assembling.

 

  • Serve with salsa, guacamole, or hot sauce on the side.
