Tools you’ll need
- Large nonstick skillet or griddle
- Wooden spoon or spatula
- Medium mixing bowl
- Sharp knife
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Cheese grater (if shredding your own cheese)
- Large plate or cutting board for assembling
Instructions
- 1. Prepare the beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat, then add taco seasoning and water (per packet instructions). Let simmer and thicken.
- 2. Warm tortillas & tostadas: Microwave flour tortillas for 20 seconds to soften. Set out your crunchy corn tostadas.
- 3. Layer the base: Lay one large tortilla on a flat surface. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of nacho cheese in the center, then add a scoop of seasoned beef. Place one tostada shell directly on top.
- 4. Repeat the layers: Add more nacho cheese, another scoop of beef, and a second tostada shell, stacking neatly.
- 5. Add cool toppings: On top of the second tostada, spread a layer of sour cream, sprinkle shredded lettuce, and scatter diced tomatoes.
- 6. Fold and seal: Carefully fold the tortilla edges up and over the center, pleating as you go, to create a hexagonal wrap. If the tortilla doesn’t close completely, use a small cut piece of another tortilla to patch the center and seal.
- 7. Grill the Crunchwrap: Place the wrap seam side down onto a preheated skillet. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
- 8. Serve: Slice in half and enjoy while hot!

Instructions
Brown ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain, add taco seasoning and water, and simmer until thickened.
Warm flour tortillas in microwave for 20 seconds so they’re pliable.
Place one tortilla on a flat surface. Spread 2-3 tbsp nacho cheese in the center, add 1/4 of the beef mixture, then place a tostada shell on top.
Repeat layers by adding more nacho cheese, beef, and another tostada.
Top with spoonfuls of sour cream, shredded lettuce, and diced tomatoes.
Carefully fold the tortilla edges in, working in pleats, until the fillings are sealed. Patch center with a tortilla piece, if needed.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little cooking spray or oil. Place crunchwrap seam-side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until golden.
Slice and serve hot.
