Ingredients: Healthy Crunchwrap Supreme Bake

Here’s what you’ll need to create this delicious and healthier take on the Crunchwrap Supreme:

* 1.5 lbs 96% Lean Ground Beef
* 6 Mission Carb Balance Burrito Tortillas (I use the 10″ tortillas)
* 2 Cups Fat Free Kraft Shredded Cheddar Cheese

* 1-2 Cups Shredded Lettuce
* 1 Cup Diced Tomatoes
* 1 Cup Fat Free Plain Greek Yogurt
* 2 Tbl Taco Seasoning
* ½ Tsp Onion Powder
* ½ Tsp Garlic Powder
* Salt/Pepper to Taste
* Olive Oil Spray

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with olive oil spray.
2. Brown the Beef: In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
3. Season the Beef: Add the taco seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the browned beef. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

4. Layer 1: Tortillas: Place 3 of the carb-balance tortillas in the bottom of the prepared baking dish, slightly overlapping if necessary to cover the surface.
5. Layer 2: Beef & Cheese: Spread the seasoned ground beef evenly over the tortillas. Sprinkle with 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese.
6. Layer 3: Greek Yogurt & Tomatoes: Gently spread the fat-free Greek yogurt over the cheese layer. Then, sprinkle the diced tomatoes evenly over the yogurt.

7. Layer 4: Lettuce & Remaining Cheese: Top with the shredded lettuce and the remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese.
8. Layer 5: Final Tortillas: Place the remaining 3 tortillas over the cheese and lettuce layer, again overlapping if needed.
9. Bake: Spray the top tortillas lightly with olive oil spray. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the tortillas are lightly golden brown and crispy.

10. Cool & Serve: Let the bake cool for a few minutes before cutting into squares and serving. Enjoy!

Chef Tip: For extra crispy tortillas on top, broil for the last 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

Why This Recipe Works & Expert Tips

This recipe works because it cleverly deconstructs the Crunchwrap Supreme and rebuilds it as a shareable, baked casserole. The layering technique ensures that every bite is packed with flavor and texture. Using lean ground beef and fat-free dairy products significantly reduces the fat content, while the carb-balance tortillas provide a satisfying crunch without the guilt.

It’s truly easy comfort food for family dinners that everyone will love. To make it even easier, you can pre-shred the lettuce and dice the tomatoes ahead of time. For a creamier Greek yogurt layer, you can mix in a tablespoon of taco seasoning or a squeeze of lime juice. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different toppings to create your perfect healthy crunchwrap!

Storage, Freezing, and Reheating Tips

Reheating: Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 1-2 minutes, or reheat the entire bake in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through. To restore some of the crispness, you can briefly broil the top for a minute or two.
