    Keto tortillas

    The key to making the perfect keto crunchwrap recipe is to find a tortilla large enough to hold the taco ingredients and fold around the edges to make a pillow. Ideally a 10 inch tortilla or larger.

    The smaller tortilla should be about the size of your tostada shell (about 4.5 inches). Instead of buying a separate pack of smaller tortillas, you can cut out a small tortilla from the large tortillas.

    Large and small keto tortillas are sold at most grocery stores but you can also source them online. However, most larger tortillas do contain gluten.

    Crispy tostada shell

    What makes Taco Bell’s Crunch Wrap Supreme crunchy? It’s the hard corn shell inside the wrap. This is a must have when making a keto version of the fast food favorite.

    Most keto recipes will have you fry up a flour tortilla to form a hard shell; however, this isn’t the same as what Taco Bell uses. And a wheat based keto tortilla doesn’t crunch the same as a keto tostada shell.

    Variations

    When it comes to make a keto crunch wrap recipe, you can customize it to fit your needs or tastes.

    Swap out the ground beef for ground chicken or turkey. Or make a breakfast crunch wrap by using ground sausage.

    Don’t want to make or buy nacho cheese sauce? Just omit it or add another layer of shredded cheese instead.

    Add or omit any additional fixings like diced jalapeno, cilantro, black olives or red onions.

    Storage information & meal prep instructions

    Meal prep

    To save time, make up your keto tostada shells ahead of time. You can stop at the tortilla stage and refrigerate them for up to a week or freeze them for 1-2 months. Just keep the low carb tortillas sandwiched between the parchment paper and store flat in a freezer safe bag.

    You can store fried tostada shells at room temperature for up to 3 days.

    Refrigerator storage

    The assembled low carb crunch wrap can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To reheat, bake in the air fryer at 375 degrees for 3-4 minutes or the oven for 5-8 minutes.

    Freezing the crunch wraps is not recommended; however, you can freeze the tortillas as mentioned above.

    Keto Crunchwrap: FAQS

    Is nacho cheese keto friendly?

    Most nacho cheese sauce at the grocery store has 0-2 grams of carbs per tablespoon; therefore, it won't kick you out of ketosis if you limit the amount.

    What can I order at Taco Bell that is keto friendly?

    Order a steak or chicken power bowl but without the rice, beans and sour cream. The sour cream they use adds 2-3 carbs. Ask for extra protein, extra guacamole and extra lettuce and tomatoes.

    My tortilla is too small. Can I still make a crunch wrap?

    Yes, you can still make this keto crunchwrap supreme recipe. Just don't add as much taco beef, filling ingredients and make your tostada shells smaller.
