DAIRY-FREE & MEAT-FREE
The crunchwrap supreme is a classic Taco Bell menu item that deserves to have a vegan Crunch Wrap Supreme version. In this 25-minute recipe, I’ll show you how to turn 9 simple ingredients into a flavourful, crunchy taco stuffed inside a soft flour tortilla.
INGREDIENTS FOR VEGAN CRUNCHWRAP SUPREME:
- Large Flour Tortillas
(swap for gluten-free if needed) - Veggie Ground Beef (no mock meat, try lentils! More Instructions below!)
- Taco Seasoning
- Hard Tostada Shells
(swap for gluten-free if needed) - Vegan Sour Cream
- Vegan Nacho Cheese Dip
or vegan cheese dip of choice - Vegan Shredded Cheese
- Iceberg Lettuce
- Tomatoes
KITCHEN EQUIPMENT I USED:
SCROLL BELOW FOR FULL INSTRUCTIONS
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 cups veggie ground beef
- 1 package taco seasoning
- Hard tostada shells (You can also use small corn tortillas, just heat oven to 400F, and place the tortillas on a baking sheet, bake for 5-10 mins until crispy)
- Vegan sour cream
- Vegan nacho cheese dip
- Vegan shredded cheese
- Shredded iceberg lettuce
- Diced tomatoes
- In a large pan over medium heat, heat your veggie ground beef with a bit of water, and taco seasoning until heated through.
- Meanwhile, ensure all your veggies are chopped, and you have your queso dip and sour cream ready.
- To heat your flour tortillas, you can either microwave them for 10 seconds or warm them in the oven. To warm them in the oven; heat your oven to 350, and wrap your stack of tortillas in foil. Heat the wrapped stack in the oven for 15 mins.
- Heat a large pan over medium heat.
- Lay your wrap out and spread a dollop of sour cream in the center.
- Top with some of the cooked veggie ground beef.
- Add a thin layer of shredded vegan cheese, then top with a hardened tostada shell.
- On top of the tostada shell, spread some warm queso-dip, and top with diced tomatoes & shredded lettuce.
- Starting with the bottom of the tortilla, fold up the edge over the center, working your way around the entire tortilla.
- If you have a spot left open in the center, just fill it in, by tucking in a cut piece of another flour tortilla under the folds.
- Gently place your crunch wrap folded side down onto the heated pan, and allow it to toast for a few minutes until it's gently browned, this should take roughly 3 mins, or so.
- With a spatula, carefully flip your wrap and toast for another 2-3 mins.
- Serve with some hot sauce, guacamole and/or extra queso dip on the side for dipping.
1 cup brown or green lentils, rinsed and sorted
3 tsp vegetable bouillon
3 cups water
olive oil
1/2 onion, diced
2 tbsp taco seasoning
1 cup lettuce finely chopped
1/2 cup tomatoes diced small
1/4 cup red onion diced small
4 large flour tortillas
1 cup nacho cheese sauce (link ours)
tortilla chips, as needed
In a small saucepan add lentils, 3 cups of water and bouillon, and bring to a boil. Immediately reduce heat to a simmer, and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender. Drain and reserve excess liquid. Set lentils aside.
In the same pan, heat 1 tbsp oil, add onion and cook until translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
Add taco seasoning and ¼ cup of the reserved cooking liquid, and lentils, and stir to combine. Cook for another 10 minutes, or until tender.
To Assemble:
In batches, heat large tortillas in the microwave and heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add ¼ cup of lentils to the center of each tortilla, and top with cheese sauce, tortilla chips, lettuce, and tomato.
Gently but tightly fold the edges of the large tortilla toward the center, creating pleats.
Quickly invert, so the folded seam side is down, and cook until golden, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook the other side.
