Healthier Crunchwrap Supreme

I would never have thought I would be typing these words, but today’s recipe is inspired by Taco Bell! Who doesn’t love a classic? The Crunchwrap Supreme from Taco Bell is a delightful combination of flavors and textures, encapsulated in a convenient hexagonal package. With its layers of seasoned beef, warm nacho cheese, crisp lettuce, juicy tomatoes, sour cream, and crunchy tostada shell, every bite offers a satisfying symphony of tastes. The warm, soft flour tortilla encases the fillings, ensuring a perfect blend of savory goodness with each bite. Whether enjoyed as a quick meal on the go or as a late-night snack, the Crunchwrap Supreme never fails to deliver a comforting and indulgent experience that has made it a beloved classic among Taco Bell enthusiasts.

Ingredients

• Taco Meat:
• 1 pound ground chicken, beef, or turkey
• 1 yellow onion, chopped
• 2-3 teaspoons chili powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 poblano or jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely chopped
• 2 cups shredded romaine lettuce
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, chopped
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• For Assembling:
• 6 corn tortillas
• 6 large (burrito size) whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas
• 6 mini taco size whole wheat or gluten free tortillas
• 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup cubed Monterey Jack cheese
• 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 3/4 teaspoon Celtic sea salt
• Fresh cilantro, limes, avocado, and hot sauce, for serving

Equipment

• Large skillet
• Silicone spatula
• Measuring spoons/cups
• Chef's knife
• Cutting board
• Baking sheet

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400° F.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the ground meat and onion. Cook, breaking up the meat as it cooks, until the meat is browned, about 5 minutes. Add the chili powder, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, oregano, and salt. Add 3/4 cup water. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the sauce has thickened slightly around the meat, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
3. Meanwhile, make the tostadas. Line the corn tortillas up on a sheet pan and rub lightly with olive oil. Transfer to the oven and bake 6 minutes. Flip, and bake another 4-5 minutes, until crisped. While warm, sprinkle with sea salt and lime zest or the "Doritos" seasoning blend (recipe in notes) for extra flavor.
4. To assemble, warm a large tortilla for 20 seconds in the microwave or in a warm skillet, then brush with water to dampen. Lay flat on a surface. In the center, layer the meat, a sprinkle of cheddar, a few cubes of Monterey Jack, and a sprinkle of peppers. Add 1 tostada on top, spread with yogurt, hot sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, and cilantro. Place 1 small tortilla on top, brush with water, then fold the edges of the large tortilla in, pressing to seal (see above photos). Repeat with the remaining wraps.
5. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet, add 1 crunch-wrap and cook 2-3 minutes per side until crisp and golden brown. Serve warm with any amount of desired toppings, avocado, hot sauce, yogurt, cilantro, salsa, whatever you love!
6. Enjoy!

Notes

Doritos Seasoning: In a small bowl, mix 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Add cayenne pepper for even more kick. Sprinkle over the warm tostadas for extra flavor!
