Description
Taco Bell’s legendary Crunchwrap Supreme blends crispy tortillas with seasoned beef, melted cheese, and zesty toppings. Homemade versions deliver restaurant-quality flavor you can enjoy without leaving home.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 whole wheat burrito tortillas (large)
- 4 tortillas (small, or 1 large tortilla cut into four equal quarters)
- 15 oz (425 g) black beans (rinsed and drained)
- 1 cup nacho “cheese” sauce
- 1 cup brown rice (cooked)
- 2 jalapeños (sliced)
- 2 avocados (pit removed and cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 1 cup grape tomatoes (diced)
- 1 yellow onion (diced)
Instructions
- Prep Ingredients: Finely dice grape tomatoes, yellow onion, jalapeños, and slice avocados into uniform pieces to ensure balanced flavor in each bite.
- Layer Foundation: Spread a large tortilla on a clean surface and center cooked brown rice as the primary base for the Crunchwrap.
- Build Flavor Layers: Distribute black beans evenly over rice, then cascade nacho cheese sauce across the beans, creating a rich, creamy underlay.
- Add Texture and Zest: Strategically scatter jalapeño slices, avocado pieces, diced tomatoes, and yellow onions to introduce vibrant color and complex taste profiles.
- Create Protective Barrier: Place a smaller tortilla disc at the center to separate ingredients and prevent moisture transfer.
- Seal and Shape: Carefully fold the large tortilla’s edges toward the center, forming a compact pentagon-like package with interlocking pleats that secure the filling.
- Crisp and Cook: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, then position the Crunchwrap seam-side down to seal and develop a golden, crunchy exterior.
- Perfect Browning: Cook for 4-5 minutes until the bottom achieves a rich, bronzed finish, then flip and repeat on the opposite side to ensure uniform crispness.
- Serve and Maintain: Transfer completed Crunchwraps to a low-temperature oven to preserve heat and texture before presenting this delectable Mexican-inspired creation.
Notes
- Precise Ingredient Prep: Chop vegetables uniformly to ensure balanced flavor and texture in every bite.
- Layer Strategically: Build ingredients carefully, creating a solid foundation with rice and beans before adding sauces and toppings.
- Master the Fold: Fold tortilla edges tightly to create a pentagon-shaped seal that prevents ingredients from spilling during cooking.
- Low and Slow Cooking: Use medium-low heat to achieve a golden, crispy exterior without burning the delicate tortilla wrapper.
