Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb lean ground beef or ground turkey (or preferred protein alternative)
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Tortillas and Crunch

  • 4 large flour tortillas (10–12 inches)
  • 4 crunchy tostadas or small corn tortillas (to crisp)

Cheese and Beans

  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar or Mexican cheese blend
  • 1/2 cup refried beans or black beans (warmed)

Fresh Vegetables and Toppings

  • 1 cup fresh lettuce, shredded
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup salsa

Optional Add-ins / Variations

  • Jalapeños, chipotle sauce, or hot sauce for heat
  • Sautéed mushrooms for vegetarian option
  • Vegan cheese and sour cream for dairy-free version
  • Additional veggies like bell peppers, corn, or sliced avocado

Instructions

  1. Cook the Protein: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add ground beef or your preferred protein. Season with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook thoroughly, breaking the meat into small pieces. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Warm the Beans: In a separate pan or microwave, gently heat refried beans or black beans until spreadable and warm.
  3. Prepare Tortillas and Tostadas: Lightly warm large flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave to make them flexible. If using small corn tortillas, crisp them in a bit of oil on the stove or bake at 400°F (200°C) for 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway.
  4. Assemble the Crunch Wrap: Lay one large tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread warmed beans in the center, add a scoop of seasoned meat, then place a crunchy tostada on top. Sprinkle shredded cheese generously, then add fresh lettuce and diced tomatoes. Top with a dollop each of sour cream and salsa. Fold the edges of the tortilla toward the center, overlapping to seal completely.
  5. Cook the Crunch Wrap: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the wrapped tortilla seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden-brown and crispy, with the cheese melted inside. Press gently with a spatula to help seal and crisp evenly.

Notes

  • Use a non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and ensure even toasting.
  • Do not overfill the wrap; balanced layers make folding easier and neater.
  • Warm tortillas before folding to avoid cracks and make them pliable.
  • Press gently while cooking to seal edges and crisp the wrap.
  • Try combining cheeses like Monterey Jack with cheddar for richer flavor.
