Cheesy Ground Beef Crunchwrap Supreme

Cheesy Ground Beef Crunchwrap Supreme

Ingredients:

For the Beef Filling:

• 1 lb (450g) ground beef
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• 1/2 cup (120ml) water

For the Wrap:

• 4 large flour tortillas
• 4 small tostada shells (or tortilla chips)
• 1 cup (240ml) nacho cheese sauce (or shredded cheddar cheese)
• 1 cup (240ml) shredded lettuce
• 1 cup (240ml) diced tomatoes
• 1/2 cup (120ml) sour cream
• 1/2 cup (120ml) shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
• Optional: Jalapeño slices, hot sauce

Instructions:

Make the Beef Filling:

1. Cook the Beef:
   • In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
2. Add Onion and Garlic:
   • Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Cook until the onion is translucent.
3. Season:
   • Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.

Assemble the Wraps:

1. Prepare the Tortillas:
   • Warm the flour tortillas slightly in the microwave or on a skillet to make them more pliable.
2. Layer the Ingredients:
   • Lay one flour tortilla on a flat surface. In the center of the tortilla, layer 1/4 of the cooked beef mixture, a small handful of shredded cheese, and a tostada shell (or a layer of tortilla chips).
3. Add the Toppings:
   • Spread some nacho cheese sauce over the tostada shell. Add shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, a dollop of sour cream, and a few jalapeño slices (if using).
4. Fold the Tortilla:
   • Carefully fold the edges of the flour tortilla towards the center, creating pleats to form a closed wrap. If the tortilla doesn’t completely close, you can add a small piece of another tortilla to cover the gap.

Cook the Wraps:

1. Heat a Skillet:
   • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
2. Toast the Wraps:
   • Place the wrap seam-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden and crispy. Carefully flip and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes.
3. Serve:
   • Remove from the skillet and repeat with the remaining wraps. Serve immediately with additional sour cream, hot sauce, or salsa on the side.
