Homemade Crunchwrap Supreme is a popular Tex-Mex-inspired dish that mimics a menu item from the fast-food chain Taco Bell. It consists of various layers of ingredients wrapped in a large flour tortilla and folded into a hexagonal shape, then cooked until crispy on the outside.
Crunchwrap Supreme Ingredients:
- Large Flour Tortillas: These serve as the outer shell and are used to encase all the fillings.
- Ground Meat: Usually beef or turkey, seasoned with taco seasoning. This provides the main protein component.
- Taco Seasoning Mix: A blend of spices that gives the meat its signature flavor. It typically includes ingredients like chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Nacho Cheese Sauce: Provides a creamy, cheesy element to the dish.
- Tostada Shells: These are flat, crispy tortillas that add crunch and texture to the filling.
- Sour Cream: Adds a creamy and tangy component.
- Lettuce, Shredded: Provides a fresh, crisp element.
- Tomato, Diced: Adds juiciness and a burst of flavor.
- Shredded Mexican Cheese Blend: A mix of cheeses like cheddar, Monterey Jack, and others, for extra melty goodness.
Keep in mind that you can customize the ingredients to your liking. For example, you can use a different type of cheese, add salsa, guacamole, or other toppings according to your taste preferences. Enjoy making your Crunchwrap Supremes!

Leftovers
If you have leftover Crunchwrap Supremes, here are some ideas on how to repurpose them or store them for later:
- Reheat and Enjoy: Pop them in the oven or a hot skillet to reheat. This will help maintain their crispiness. Remember to ensure the internal temperature reaches a safe level for consumption.
- Breakfast Crunchwrap: Heat a leftover Crunchwrap in a skillet and crack an egg into the center. Cook until the egg is done to your liking. This creates a delicious breakfast version.
- Crunchwrap Salad: Deconstruct the Crunchwrap by removing the tortilla, and use the fillings to create a salad. Add extra greens, your favorite dressing, and any additional toppings you like.
- Freeze for Later: If you can’t eat all the leftovers within a few days, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or foil and store them in an airtight container in the freezer. Label them with the date.
- Crunchwrap Quesadillas: Use the fillings to make quesadillas. Place the fillings between two tortillas and cook them on a griddle or skillet until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are crispy.
- Crunchwrap Tacos: Remove the outer tortilla and use the filling to make tacos. Add extra toppings like salsa, guacamole, and extra cheese.
- Crunchwrap Burrito Bowl: Take out the fillings and serve them over rice or quinoa for a burrito bowl. Add your favorite toppings like salsa, avocado, and extra cheese.
- Wrap and Store Well: If you’re planning to store them, wrap each Crunchwrap individually in foil or plastic wrap. Place them in an airtight container or resealable bag and refrigerate.
