Ingredients
Scale
(Makes 4 crunchwraps)
Protein & seasoning:
- 1 lb lean ground beef or turkey (you love high-protein!)
- 1 tbsp taco seasoning (check for no added sugar—you love clean labels!)
- 2 tbsp water or low-sodium broth (you love low-sodium!)
Layers (per wrap):
- 1 large gluten-free or low-carb tortilla (10–12″ — you love GF/low-carb!)
- ¼ cup reduced-sodium shredded cheddar or Mexican blend
- 1 small crispy tostada shell (GF corn or low-carb almond flour version)
- 2 tbsp sugar-free sour cream or Greek yogurt (you love creamy textures!)
- ¼ cup shredded lettuce
- 2 tbsp diced tomatoes
- 1 tbsp diced red onion (soak in cold water 5 min to mellow bite)
- Optional: 1 tbsp sugar-free nacho cheese sauce
For cooking:
- 1 tsp avocado oil or butter (for toasting)
Instructions
1. Cook meat:
In skillet over medium-high heat, brown ground meat 5–6 minutes. Drain fat. Stir in taco seasoning and water/broth; simmer 2 minutes.
2. Prep layers:
Have all fillings ready in small bowls for quick assembly.
3. Assemble crunchwrap:
- Lay large tortilla flat.
- Spread 1 tbsp sour cream in center.
- Add ¼ of seasoned meat.
- Sprinkle with cheese.
- Place tostada shell on top (this is the CRUNCH!).
- Layer lettuce, tomatoes, and drained onion on tostada.
- Optional: Drizzle with sugar-free nacho cheese.
4. Fold & seal:
Fold edges of large tortilla over filling in a hexagon pattern, overlapping to fully enclose. Press gently to seal.
5. Toast:
Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Place crunchwrap seam-side down; cook 3–4 minutes until golden. Flip carefully; cook 3 more minutes until crispy and cheese melts.
6. Serve:
Let rest 1–2 minutes before slicing in half. Serve with extra sugar-free sour cream or salsa.
