I’m a former Taco Bell employee, and I’m showing you how to recreate your favorite menu items at home. This week, we’re making the iconic Crunchwrap Supreme. It’s a little extra work, but you’ll get at least six for what it costs to buy two at the drive-thru—and you can load them up however you want. Homemade Crunchwrap Supreme (Taco Bell Dupe) Makes: 6 Crunchwraps Total Estimated Cost: ~$15.00 Cost Per Crunchwrap: ~$2.50 (compared to $5+ at Taco Bell) 1 lb ground beef – $4.00 1 packet taco seasoning (or homemade) – $0.50 6 Old El Paso Grande 12” tortillas – $3.50 6 tostada shells – $2.00 1 cup nacho cheese sauce (Dollar Tree or Fritos dip) – $1.25-$3.00 1 cup sour cream – $1.00 1 cup shredded lettuce – $0.75 1–2 diced tomatoes – $1.00 Instructions: Warm your tortillas: The 12” tortillas are oversized and may not fit in your pan—just rotate them gently to warm. Assemble: In the center of each tortilla, add a scoop of taco meat and a spoonful of nacho cheese. Place a tostada shell on top, press gently, and give it a twist to spread the fillings. Layer with sour cream, shredded lettuce, and diced tomatoes. Fold: Starting at one edge, fold the tortilla up and over the center, then continue folding around in a circular motion until it’s sealed. Toast: Place the folded side down in a dry skillet over medium heat. Toast until golden, then flip and toast the other side. Serve: Slice in half or enjoy as-is! #FakeoutFriday #CrunchwrapSupreme #TacoBellDupe #CopycatRecipe #EasyMeals #BudgetEats #TacoBellAtHome #homemadefastfoodrestutant #MealHack #FrugalCooking #tacobellsecrets #TacoNight #wevegottacobellathome
