You can now make everyone’s favorite Taco Bell item, the Crunchwrap Supreme, at home with this easy to follow recipe. Just like the fast food version, this homemade Crunchwrap Supreme is packed with all the toppings!
Jess and I have been talking about making a homemade Crunchwrap Supreme for over a year now. We are proud to announce that it has finally happened!
We were so excited about the accomplishment we ate one for lunch AND for dinner 😉 (hey, we shared).
We do try and stay away from eating fast food as much as possible, but once in a while, it’s necessary to indulge. It’s even better when you can make it at home with high-quality meat and fresh veggies from your local grocery store.
I won’t lie though, I still slathered my share with leftover fire sauce from a previous visit to Taco Bell. ?
This was super easy to make and, I’ll say it, better than the original! You guys seem to really love it too because it has become the most popular recipe on our site receiving millions of views!
We get comments and e-mails daily for readers telling us how much they and their families enjoy this homemade version of the crunchwrap supreme. Some have even tweaked it to their liking or made it fit their diet by creating a vegetarian/vegan version. Be sure to scroll down and read the comments to find those!
Wondering what all goes in a Crunchwrap Supreme? The answer is a lot. I think that’s why everyone likes it so much. It’s the ultimate taco bell treat!

How To Make Crunchwrap Supreme
PrintHomemade Crunchwrap Supreme Recipe
- Prep Time: 10 mins
- Cook Time: 15 mins
- Total Time: 25 mins
- Yield: 6 1x
- Category: Dinner
- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
1 lb ground meat
1 packet taco seasoning mix
6 burrito size flour tortillas
1 cup of sour cream
2 cups of shredded lettuce
1 diced tomato
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
Instructions
- In a skillet or large cooking pan, cook and crumble the ground beef over medium-high heat. When it is no longer pink, drain the grease.
- Place meat back into the pan and stir the taco seasoning mix as well as the water it calls for on the packet. Cook according to the package instructions.
- Warm up the nacho cheese sauce in the microwave and set aside.
- Place the flour tortillas on a plate and warm in the microwave for about 20 seconds.
- Lay one tortilla on a flat surface. Spread a couple of tablespoons of nacho cheese in the middle of the tortilla.
- Place ½ cup of taco meat on top of the nacho cheese.
- Next, add the tostada shell, a thin layer of sour cream, lettuce, tomato, and lastly, the shredded Mexican cheese.
- To fold into the actual crunchwrap, start with the bottom of the tortilla and fold the edge up to the center of the fillings. Keep doing that, folding as tight as possible, as you work your way around the tortilla.
- Spray another skillet or cooking pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Place the crunchwrap supreme, seam-side down, onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 min., or until golden brown.
- Flip over and cook the other side for another 2-3 min or until golden brown.
- Cook the rest of your crunchwraps and eat immediately.

Made these in a smaller form today and they were amazing! I couldn’t find large enough tortillas so used the biggest I could find with half of a hard taco shell inside. Delicious!

Omg I am obsessed with this recipe!!!! I crave this all the time. I couldn’t find tostada shells, so I just used a crunchy taco shell that I broke in half. I also ran out of shredded cheese, but the nacho cheese was more than enough. Don’t skip the nacho cheese! It makes the recipe. I absolutely love these and could eat them everyday.

Janet says
Is it posible to make the crunch wraps with chicken? If so would you recommend ground chicken/turkey or cooked shredded chicken. I make these for my family with the ground beef and they are a big hit. I have a friend that does not eat beef and I would like to make them for her. Can you help?
Leighann says
We use ground turkey in our house every time a recipe calls for ground beef. Beef definitely has a different flavor, but ground turkey is cheaper for the most part, and healthier! The recipe just calls for ground meat, so you can decide if you want to go turkey, chicken, or even tofu!
Meena says
Made this veggie style! But I had to cut a tortilla in half and add in order to wrap it correctly. Also. Instead of sour cream I used jalapeño ranch and added cilantro! Turned out great!

Yummy

amazing recipe my family loved it

Nancy says
I’m so dumb! But what’s a tostado shell?♀️
Susan says
A tostada shell is a fried corn tortilla. It’s a taco shell that hasn’t been folded.
Crissy says
Loved these! I used refried beans instead of nacho cheese! Absolutely delicious!

Hi, when you fold the Crunchwrap and you want to Brown it in a skillet how can you do that without the stuff coming out of it?
Anita Deluna says
I never can find big enough tortillas. They are still delicious but I would love to be able to close the tortilla better.
Glen Beach says
You need the extra large burrito shells. If you can’t find those, put a regular soft shell taco tortillas on to of the filling before you fold to cover the gap.
Riki says
I was super lazy and didn’t warm anything up prior to frying. This was so good and EASY to make. You rock. Now all the ingredients are in my fridge so all I have to do is assemble and fry whenever I want another crunchwrap supreme. Woohoo!
★★★★★
Laureen E Williams says
well the first thing that is wrong is you are supposed to use refried beans first on the soft tortilla. then a round hard tortilla if you have one if not use tortilla chips. then the meat, cheese, sour cream, tomato or salsa and then lettuce fold it closed fry in a little butter. folded side first then enjoy cut in half for the best way to keep all things inside!
Jessica Pinney says
Taco Bell’s Crunchwrap Supreme does not contain refried beans.
faithlyn smith says
I recommend adding them! They can do it and it takes it up a notch!
Carol says
I made these last night and my family could not get enough. So much better than Taco Bell, and made with better ingredients. I did make a few changes, to suit to our liking. I added refried beans as well as pepper jack cheese, and layered them in a slightly different order, with the addition of another tostada to keep the lettuce and tomatoes cool and crisp. Here is my order: Extra large Guerro burrito, refried beans, ground beef, queso cheese, tostada, sour cream, lettuce , tomato, tostado, pepper jack. Wrap it up and brown in the pan. The extra large burrito held everything nicely together, with no leakage. So yummy!

So good. A favorite for the family.

Robin says
This is one of my favorite recipes for dinner ever. It’s so easy and everyone in the family loves it. I wasn’t sure how I would do with the whole folding thing but I watched the little video and got it on the first try. As long as you’re gentle it’ll turn out great. Best part is if you make the meat in bulk then you’ll have left overs. Lasted us for a week. Ate them for dinner one night and then had them a few different days for lunch. Highly recommend! If you don’t have diced tomatoes(canned/or fresh) it’s good with salsa.

In New Mexico, we take a green chile burger and do pretty much the same… helps if you have pizza stone in your oven. Fold the tortilla over the pre-cooked burger/cheese/sauce and 10 min each side @425F convection. No dribble, no mess. Juices stay put. Enjoy!
Jill Greywolfe says
Thank you so much for mentioning this – I came to comments to ask if it could be prepared in oven
Darlene says
I fixed this for supper last evening, added refried beans, but would be fantastic just as it is. It is a keeper.
Sue says
These are easy and a real keeper!
Kira Urie says
Got the biggest burrito shells my store had, still a bit small so I just used a smaller piece of another tostada shell to hold the goodies in. We don’t eat fast food here, and I don’t eat beef, but many many years ago these were my favorite. These were spot on and so delicious!! I used ground turkey btw, came out fine!

Karen says
I made this using a corn tortilla baked in my air fryer since I couldn’t find the tostada at our neighborhood grocery store. It came out perfect. Everyone in the family loved it. It will become part of our meal rotation!
Jazzy's Mama says
These look delicious, can’t wait to give them a try!

I tried this recipe and had make regular burritos. Kroger doesn’t sell big enough burritos :(. Even their large burritos didn’t work.
