Serves: 10-12

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS FOR GROUND BEEF MIXTURE:

1 lb. Ground Beef
½ Sweet White Onion, minced
1 cup Red Chile 505 Enchilada Sauce

INGREDIENTS FOR CRUNCHWRAP:

1 tbsp. Unsalted Butter, softened
9 Burrito-Size Flour Tortillas
3 cups Monterey Jack Cheese, shredded
2 cups Shredded Iceberg Lettuce
1 cup Diced Tomatoes
1 cup Sour Cream
6 Tostada Shells
Non-stick Cooking Spray, as needed
Cilantro, for garnish
Fresh Jalapenos, for garnish (and/or hot sauce)

Instructions

Saute the ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook until browned, about 8 - 10 minutes. Drain, if necessary, and then add the enchilada sauce. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend and the sauce to thicken.
Butter a sheet pan with softened butter. Make sure to go all the way to the edges.
Place 1 tortilla in the middle of the sheet pan and then line six tortillas along the sides, slightly overlapping and overhanging along the edges.
Evenly layer the cheese, ground beef mixture, shredded lettuce, and diced tomatoes on the tortillas.
Layer the tostada shells on top and then cover with the remaining two flour tortillas in the middle. Gently fold the overhanging edges of the bottom tortillas over the top tortillas and press down. Spray the top of the folded tortillas with non-stick cooking spray and cover with a second baking sheet. Place a cast-iron skillet on top and bake at 400F for 30 minutes.
Remove the cast iron and top baking sheet. Bake for an additional 8 minutes, or until the tortillas have browned on top.
Remove the browned crunch wraps from the oven, slice, and enjoy immediately with desired garnishes.

NOTES ON THIS RECIPE:

I like to use 80/20 ground beef in this recipe, as it’s more flavorful. If you prefer a leaner grade, or even ground chicken… that will work as well.
I always recommend shredding your own cheese. Trust me, it’s worth it. Plus you get a little arm workout! 🙂
If you can’t find tostada shells, feel free to substitute with crunchy taco shells (make sure to break them in half), tortilla chips, or even nacho flavored Doritos!
