Crunchwrap supreme Recipe is a Taco Bell’s favorite, but this homemade easy version is healthier, crispier, and more flavorful as it’s made with fresh ingredients and flavorful homemade ground beef with a bunch of everyday spices. The best part is it’s customizable; you can add or omit whatever your heart desires.

What goes into the crunchwrap supreme Recipe
Seasoned Ground beef
Let’s talk about the main filling, which is ground beef cooked in a tomato-based sauce and some everyday spices. I used 95% lean beef, but you can use 80/20 or even 85/15. Just make sure to get rid off any extra fat before adding the spices. You can also use chicken or turkey but cooking time for it will be less.

First of all, you are going to start by sautéing 1 small chopped onion for only a minute. Then, add in ground beef and break it down with a wooden spoon into smaller chunks. Once it starts changing color, it’s time to add in spices.
Spices
As I mentioned before, it’s completely up to you how you like your crunchwrap to taste, so use any spices you like, or you can also use store-bought taco seasoning. However, I used salt, cayenne pepper, cumin powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and oregano. Also, for flavor, I used 1 chicken cube. Add in your spices along with the tomato paste and cook the ground beef on high heat for 4-5 minutes while stirring it often.
Add in 1 cup of water. Once it comes to a boil, lower the heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes. Then add lime juice and cilantro. If your meat is watery, increase the heat and let the water evaporate. Let the ground beef come to room temperature before assembling.
If it’s hot or watery, then the tortilla wrap will fall apart.
Assembling the Crunchwrap
Large Flour Tortilla
I used the biggest tortilla wrap I could find, which is usually used for making burritos. You can also opt for high-fiber or high-protein tortillas for a healthier version.
Crispy Tostadas
These are the key ingredients to add crunch to this wrap. I used 6 tostadas; you can opt for crunchy tortillas instead, or even corn chips work well.

Toppings for crunchwrap Supreme recipe
Cheese
I opted for a delightful Mexican blend of melted cheese, but another favorite of mine is the rich flavor of freshly grated cheddar or mozzarella. Feel free to experiment with any cheese that tickles your taste buds.
Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt
In the original recipe, I used sour cream, but for a healthier version, you can also use Greek yogurt mixed with a little bit of lemon or lime juice.
Iceberg Lettuce
I love using finely chopped lettuce in my supreme crunchwrap.
Tomato
Wash and chop tomatoes. You can also take the seeds out so it will not be watery. Tomatoes will add a freshness and juiciness to balance out the filling.
Storing leftover crunchwrap
I don’t recommend storing the supreme crunchwrap before it’ll get soggy and won’t taste good. However, you can make your beef mixture and all the toppings and then assemble it as needed. If you have a preassembled wrap, then wrap it tightly in foil paper and reheat on the skillet or air fry at 350°F for 5-7 minutes.
