Ingredients
Scale
Wrap
- 1 large tortilla
Filling
- 1/2 cup seasoned ground beef
- 1/4 cup refried beans
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup lettuce
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup taco sauce
Instructions
- Warm the Tortilla: Heat the large tortilla in a dry pan over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until it becomes pliable.
- Spread Refried Beans: Evenly spread 1/4 cup of refried beans in the center of the warmed tortilla, forming a circular base for the filling.
- Add Seasoned Ground Beef: Spoon 1/2 cup of freshly cooked and seasoned ground beef on top of the beans, distributing it evenly.
- Layer Cheese and Vegetables: Sprinkle 1/4 cup shredded cheese over the beef, then add 1/4 cup diced tomatoes and 1/4 cup shredded lettuce for freshness and crunch.
- Top with Creamy Sauces: Add 1/4 cup sour cream and 1/4 cup taco sauce over the layered ingredients for flavor and moisture.
- Fold the Tortilla: Carefully fold the edges of the tortilla inward to create a sealed circular wrap, securing the fillings inside.
- Cook the Crunchwrap: Place the folded crunchwrap seam side down in a skillet over medium heat. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, then carefully flip and cook the other side until golden and the cheese is melted.
- Serve: Remove from skillet, slice in half if desired, and serve hot for best flavor and texture.
