Craving a Crunchwrap™ from Taco Bell, but just can't get motivated to drive and order one? Make them at home. Really! In about 30 minutes you can have a hot, fresh Crunchwrap™ to eat while you binge watch Netflix with this easy copycat recipe.

To make this Tex-Mex recipe you will need to gather the following Mexican-inspired ingredients: ground beef, taco seasoning, flour tortillas, tostada shells, nacho cheese sauce, sour cream, iceberg lettuce, fresh tomatoes, Colby-Jack cheese (or your favorite Mexican cheese), canola or vegetable oil and optional guacamole.

Variation: You could use ground chicken or ground turkey instead of ground beef. And mix and match the filling ingredients to suit your tastes.

Serve these ground beef stuffed tortillas for lunch or dinner, or as a high-protein hearty snack. They would also make fun appetizers if you cut them into smaller pieces and served with dipping sauces.

Cuisine: Mexican / Tex-Mex / American
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 6

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 ounce (1 packet) taco seasoning
• 8 large flour tortillas
• 4 tostada shells
• 1/2 cup nacho cheese sauce
• 1 cup sour cream
• 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
• 1 cup chopped tomatoes
• 2 cups shredded Colby-Jack cheese (or 1 cup cheddar cheese and 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese)
• guacamole (optional)
• canola oil or vegetable oil, for frying

Here's how to make it:

1. Cook the ground beef in a skillet. Once cooked through, add the taco seasoning and cook according to package directions. Pour into a bowl and set aside. 
2. Stack four of the flour tortillas on top of each other. Put a tostada shell in the middle, and, using a sharp knife, trace around the shell to cut out four smaller flour tortillas. 
3. To build the Crunchwrap™, put some ground beef onto four of the uncut flour tortillas (leave a border). Drizzle with the nacho cheese sauce, then top with a tostada shell. Spread the sour cream over the tostada shell, then add the lettuce, tomato, cheese and guacamole, if using. Put a small flour tortilla (the ones you cut) on top and then fold the edges tightly toward the center.
4. Heat a small amount of oil in a skillet. Add the Crunchwrap™, seam side down, and cook until browned, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve.
