A Crunch Wrap Supreme Recipe that’s just like Taco Bell. This Crunchwrap recipe uses extra-large tortillas, Greek yogurt, and plenty of cheese making this a simple but delicious recipe! Gluten-free instructions included.
The crunchwrap is my favorite item on the Taco Bell menu. From the outside tortilla to the crunch of the corn tostada inside, this might look like a difficult meal to make, but once you learn a few simple tricks it’s really easy – and is sure to become a favorite!

How to Make
1. Brown the meat.
2. Season the meat.
Start by browning ground beef with taco seasoning.
Add a can of your favorite diced tomatoes. I used a variety with green chilies in it and it was so good!
3. Prepare the shells for the crunch wrap.
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 also just fajita-sized tortillas or corn tortillas to save from wasting the extra portion of the large tortilla.
4. Start assembling the Crunchwrap.
Start by layering the meat mixture onto a whole tortilla (not the cut one).
Add a tostada then spread tostada with Greek yogurt.
Add cheese and salsa then top with lettuce. Place the cut-out tortilla circle on top.
Use whatever toppings your family enjoys. We love keeping this Velvetta Cheese sauce on hand. It freezes well and it is easy to quickly defrost to use with the recipe.
How To Fold
5. Fold the crunchwrap.
This is the challenging part. If you simply start wrapping each side in starting on one side and gently working your way around while holding down the folded parts it goes smoothly. Once you do one you’ll get the hang of it.
6. Cook
Using a pan or griddle, coat the bottom with some oil. The oil helps seal the crunch wrap supreme shut along with giving it a nice golden brown color. Cook each side over medium heat, for 3 minutes, or until browned.
Enjoy!

Carmy says
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
Thank you for detailed instructions, it helps a lot! Very creative way to fold a tortilla, i will definitely give it a try!
Create Kids Club says
You’re welcome, Ruchi! I hope it helps!
Marisa Franca 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.
Create Kids Club says
I love your game day idea! It would be a great halftime meal! 🙂
Catherine says
Oh this looks so good! I’ve seen these around a lot lately and would love to give them a try. I know my family would thoroughly enjoy these.

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 🙂
