This is not your ordinary Crunchwrap Supreme Recipe! This Crunchwrap recipe uses flavored tortillas, greek yogurt, and a romaine lettuce blend amping up this simple but delicious recipe!
I am a proud partner of Tomato Wellness, who has sponsored this post. As always, all options are my own.
If you're like me, you've hit up Taco Bell a time or two in the late evening hours.
Most of the food I wouldn't ordinarily order other times of the day, but there is one item I really do love...
The Crunch Wrap Supreme.
The crunch of the tostada, the tomatoes, the cheese, the lettuce, all wrapped into a handheld meal.
I decided it was time to tackle this recipe at home - trying to make it even better - was it possible?
Yes, it was.
Check out how to make these this Crunchwrap Recipe in the video below and share with family or friends who would also enjoy!
How to make a Crunch Wrap Supreme
1. Start by browning ground beef with taco seasoning.
2. Add a can of your favorite diced tomatoes. I used a variety with green chilies in it and it was so good!
Why Use Canned Tomatoes?
I love tomatoes for so many reasons, but here in Wisconsin, oftentimes it's really expensive to get fresh tomatoes or they just don't taste as good as they do fresh from the garden. At these times, I lean on canned tomatoes.
Canned tomatoes are a nutrient dense superfood containing high quantities of antioxidants. Lycopene is an impressive antioxidant found in watermelons, pink grapefruits, apricots, and is found in particularly high amounts in tomatoes.
Lycopene is shown to help lower the risk of heart disease, prostate cancer, and macular degeneration, or poor eyesight as you get older.
During the canning process, tomatoes are cooked right in the can. Lycopene has been found to be more absorbable by the body in its cooked form. So canned tomatoes actually have more of the cancer-fighting lycopene than the raw variety. Sounds good to me!
3. Use a tostada as a guide to trace around to cut out a circle from a whole tortilla. This will cover the bottom of the crunch wrap recipe. You can skip this if you can find large enough tortilla shells!
4. Start by layering the meat mixture onto a whole tortilla (not the cut one).
5. Add a tostada then spread tostada with Greek yogurt.
5. Add cheese and salsa.
6. Top with lettuce.
7. Place the cut-out tortilla circle on top.
How To Fold A Crunchwrap Supreme
8. Wrap the sides in starting on one side and gently working your way around while holding down the parts folded in.
9. Using a pan or griddle, coat the bottom with some oil. The oil helps seal the crunchwrap supreme shut along with giving it the nice golden brown color.
Cook each side over medium heat, for 3 minutes, or until browned.
Enjoy!

I. AM. HERE. FOR. THIS. RECIPE! I'm not even ashamed to say that I've always wanted to try the crunch wrap supreme but couldn't bring myself to go to Taco Bell for it. Their food always look amazing in their ads but definitely are not as... packed when you purchase it. I've been meaning to DIY it but never got around to it. Thanks for this recipe!
Create Kids Club says
This made me laugh! This at-home version is so much better anyway, no need to hit up the drive thru! 😉
Ruchi says

What a cute idea!! I love how you made it into a filled "pita". This would go over big time during game Sunday!! The flavors sound delicious and I'm sure the crunchy wraps would be gone in no time.

Talk about a reason not to leave the house!! Now that you showed how to make these at home, I can't wait to give it a whirl. Very informative blog post and a simple, delicious recipe.
Create Kids Club says
Thanks, Heather! I hope you do give them a try!
Mike says
I guess this is a silly question BUT, what do I do with the tortilla with the hole in it??
Jodi Danen, RDN says
Hi Mike - Not a silly question at all! I stood there looking at it myself the first time. I have cut the scraps into triangles, brushed them with oil then sprinkled with a bit of cinnamon and sugar (or just salt), bake at 350 degrees for about 5-8 minutes and you have delicious chips! Or you could buy the 6-inch sized shells and skip the cutting part. I think that size should work. I'd love to hear if you give it a try 🙂
