It is one of the family keto-friendly meals, and customizable to your liking! Here are a few suggestions to twist this amazing recipe into your own! First, feel free to add or swap any of the ingredients mentioned with others that you think will complement the final flavor. Second, if you are not a huge meat fan, or looking for some variety, then swap the meat with chicken. Finally, I brought you a fun little assignment; substitute the keto tortilla wrap with a different vessel! Try this recipe with low carb wraps such as green cabbage or lettuce, isn't it a great idea! Wipe that confused expression out, and let me guide you through it!
A Green Crunchwrap? Yep!
Now this is something you don't see every day...A green crunchwrap! A soft spot for taco bell's, You heard that right. Experiment a little by substituting your tortilla wrap with some cabbage or butter lettuce! !
To Start, preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper then in a large pot of salted boiling water cook the cored cabbage for about 2 minutes until crisp tender. Use two sets of tongs, one to remove cabbage leaf from the base and the second set of tongs to hold the cabbage steady or use a slotted spoon to remove each leaf to a colander set over a bowl and let drain. I would recommend carefully removing the cabbage spine for ease in folding.
If you are planning on making this green crunchwrap often, then you can store your boiled cabbage large leaves in the freezer for later use. Storing the leaves may take away some of its delicious crunch, but that's okay the taste will still be as amazing as it should be! Finally, I think butter lettuce would be a good option too. Just keep in mind that it may not wrap as well, or cover all of the crunchwrap ingredients.
Save, Serve, Repeat!
Tips for the Best Crunchwrap
- Don't worry if trying this new recipe turned into a family event. All you need to do is to adjust the amount of servings/filling to suit your needs.
- Make sure you don't overfill the tortilla so it doesn't split at the sides. Split tortilla are quite difficult to cook to golden perfection at the end.
- If you are craving more filling, then simply cut your tortilla in half when done, and add as much favorite filling as you need!
- For the extra cheese sauce lovers, you can just combine cream cheese with melted butter together in a small saucepan. Once melted, add the heavy whipping cream, some ground mustard and stir to combine. Heat the mixture in the center of the hot pan then add a cup of shredded cheddar cheese, stir at low heat to melt in the cheese. Keep this friendly cheese sauce warm until ready to use.

Here's What to Do for a Perfect Fold!
Taco Bell's amazingly delicious hybrid of a taco/burrito Mexican fusion is almost everyone's guilty pleasure. But we can't always leave the house to indulge in every fast-food craving that comes crashing down on us in the middle of the night. For that reason, let me guide you through this easy method to fold your homemade crunshwrap to perfection!
Start by laying your tortilla on the counter, then spread a decent layer of ground beef, nacho cheese, tostada, sour cream, avocado, ripe tomatoes, lettuce, jalapeno, cheese, and the 5-inch tortilla. To fold the crunchwrap, fold the edges up and over the center. Work your way around it until all of the filling is covered. What you should be looking at is a five-sided shape with no peaking filling in sight!

Hi Travis,
I have updated the recipe to 12 tortillas. I wasn't counting the tostada as a tortilla.
Thank you
