Step 1: Cook the Ground Beef
- Start by heating a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a teaspoon of olive oil, then toss in the ground beef. Brown it until fully cooked. This takes about 5-7 minutes. Break it up into small pieces with a spatula and drain excess fat.
Step 2: Add Seasoning
- Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the beef. Pour in the beef broth. Mix everything together, allowing the seasoning to meld with the beef. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 3: Prepare Tostada Shells
- While the beef simmers, warm tostada shells in a separate pan on low heat. This step is crucial as it makes them more pliable. Avoid overcooking them; you want them just warm enough to handle.
Step 4: Assemble the Crunch Wrap
- Grab a flour tortilla. Start by adding a layer of the beef mixture in the center. Follow with a dollop of nacho cheese sauce, then sprinkle some shredded cheese on top. Next, place a tostada shell over the cheese. Spread sour cream over the tostada and top with diced tomatoes, lettuce, and red onion.
Step 5: Fold the Wrap
- Carefully fold the edges of the flour tortilla towards the center, covering the filling. Create pleats as you go to form a sealed parcel.
Step 6: Cook the Crunch Wrap
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the wrapped side down on the skillet. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and repeat for the other side.

Notes
Here are some tips to ensure your Crunch Wrap Supreme turns out splendidly:
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh veggies and quality meat will make a noticeable difference in taste.
- Experiment with Spices: If you’re feeling adventurous, add some chili powder or cayenne pepper to the beef for extra kick.
- Don’t Overstuff: It’s tempting to fill it to the brim, but leaving some space makes folding easier.
- Get Creative with Fillings: Try different proteins, beans, or even sautéed vegetables to customize your wrap.
- Serve Immediately: These wraps are best enjoyed fresh off the pan for crispy goodness.
