How to Make It
Step 1: Make the Cheese Sauce
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt butter and cream cheese until smooth. Gradually whisk in chicken broth until fully combined. Add shredded cheddar and onion powder, stirring until creamy and smooth.
Step 2: Cook the Taco Meat
Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground meat and cook until browned, about 8–10 minutes. Drain excess fat, then stir in spices and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 3: Prepare the Tortillas
Heat a thin layer of oil in a skillet and lightly fry the small tortillas until golden and crisp. Set aside.
Step 4: Assemble the Crunchwraps
Lay a large tortilla flat. Add seasoned meat, cheese sauce, one crispy small tortilla, sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes, shredded cheese, and top with another small tortilla. Fold edges inward to seal.
Step 5: Cook Until Crispy
Place crunchwrap seam-side down in a hot skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
Step 6: Serve
Slice in half and serve warm while the cheese is melted and gooey.
