Homemade Crunchwrap Supreme (Taco Bell Dupe)

Ingredients

• 6 pieces Old El Paso Grande Flour Tortillas (12‑inch diameter, larger than standard burrito tortillas)
• 1 lb Ground Beef (Seasoned with taco seasoning (see previous Dollar Tree Dinners episode))
• 1 cup Nacho Cheese Sauce (Prepared or store‑bought, warmed)
• 6 pieces Tostada Shells (Standard round tostada shells)
• 1/2 cup Sour Cream (Full‑fat for authentic texture)
• 2 cups Shredded Lettuce (Iceberg or romaine, washed and dried)
• 1 cup Diced Tomatoes (Fresh, seeded if desired)

Instructions

1. Warm the Tortillas

   Place each 12‑inch tortilla in a dry skillet over medium‑low heat, turning every 20 seconds until just warm and pliable. If the tortilla is too large for the pan, twirl it in the air and press gently with a spatula.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: Medium heat

2. Add Taco Meat and Cheese

   Spoon about 2‑3 Tbsp of seasoned taco meat onto the center of the warm tortilla, then add a spoonful (≈2 Tbsp) of nacho cheese sauce on top of the meat.

   Time: PT3M

3. Place Tostada Shell

   Press a tostada shell directly onto the meat‑cheese layer, applying gentle pressure so it adheres but does not break.

   Time: PT1M

4. Add Sour Cream, Lettuce, and Tomatoes

   Layer 1‑2 Tbsp of sour cream over the tostada, then sprinkle shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes evenly across the top.

   Time: PT2M

5. Fold the Crunch Wrap

   Fold the edges of the tortilla inward over the center, moving clockwise, until the shape becomes a tight hexagon. Press gently to seal the edges.

   Time: PT2M

6. Toast First Side

   Place the folded side down in the hot skillet (medium‑high). Cook for about 3 minutes, or until the tortilla is golden‑brown and crisp.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: Medium‑high heat

7. Toast Second Side

   Flip the wrap using a spatula or tongs and toast the opposite side for another 3 minutes until evenly crisp.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: Medium‑high heat
