Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet For browning ground beef.
  • 1 Small Saucepan For gently warming nacho cheese.
  • 1 Griddle or Large Non-stick Pan For assembling and crisping the crunchwraps.
  • 1 Spatula For cooking beef and flipping crunchwraps.
  • 1 Cutting Board and Chef's Knife For preparing fresh ingredients.

Ingredients
  

Main

  • 1 pound Ground Beef
  • 1 packet Taco Seasoning Mix
  • 3/4 cup Water
  • 1 can Nacho Cheese
  • 8 Burrito-Sized Flour Tortillas
  • 6 Tostada Shells
  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 2 cups Lettuce shredded
  • 1 cup Tomato diced
  • 1 cup Mexican Cheese Blend

Instructions
 

  • Brown the ground beef in a large skillet, drain any excess fat, then add taco seasoning mix and water, simmering until thickened.
  • Gently warm the nacho cheese in a small saucepan over low heat until smooth and fluid.
  • Prepare fresh ingredients: shred the lettuce and dice the tomato.
  • Lay one burrito-sized flour tortilla flat. Spread a layer of warm nacho cheese in the center, leaving a border for folding.
  • Spoon a portion of the seasoned ground beef over the nacho cheese.
  • Place one tostada shell directly on top of the ground beef.
  • Spread a layer of sour cream over the tostada shell.
  • Layer shredded lettuce, diced tomato, and Mexican cheese blend on top of the sour cream.
  • Fold the edges of the large tortilla tightly over the fillings towards the center, creating a hexagonal shape.
  • Place the folded crunchwrap seam-side down onto a preheated griddle or non-stick pan and grill for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Slice in half and serve immediately.

Notes

Achieve optimal flavor by properly browning the ground beef before adding seasoning, ensuring a rich base. When warming the nacho cheese, use a gentle heat to prevent scorching and maintain its smooth consistency. For the wrap itself, consider lightly warming the large flour tortillas before assembly; this makes them more pliable and easier to fold without tearing. To enhance the 'crunch' factor and structural integrity, lightly toast the tostada shells before incorporating them into the wrap. Finally, ensure a tight, even fold when assembling to keep all fillings secure while grilling for that signature Crunchwrap supreme aesthetic and experience.
