Paleo Crunchwrap Supreme – a Paleo gluten free friendly rendition of Taco Bell’s super famous Crunchwrap Supreme. Perfect for Taco Tuesday or any night of the week!
I was reminiscing with a few friends about the good ole college days, and how we’d get Taco Bell late night after a night out (re: boozy night out). We’d always get the crunch wrap supreme because who doesn’t like a crunch wrap supreme from Taco Ball?!
While we were talking about this, I thought to myself, I wonder if I can make one with better ingredients, and then it dawned on me, DUH, yes I can! Thus was born the Paleo Crunchwrap Supreme using tostones to get the crunch.
If there’s anything we learned from Tostones Week 2018, it’s that tostones can be used for just about anything and everything! Use them as buns for sandwiches and burgers, as toast for your avocado toast, and now as the crunchy part of the crunch wrap supreme. (Super technical term I just used there.)
I used Siete tortillas that are grain free and gluten free, but feel free to use whatever tortillas you want to use. The world is your oyster. I just want you to make them using tostones because it’s a GAME CHANGER.
Because the Siete tortillas are a bit smaller than the burrito size tortillas usually used, you’ll get smaller sized crunchwrap supremes. If you decide to make your own tortillas, make sure they are burrito sized tortillas if you want a bigger paleo crunchwrap supreme.
The little ones are cute (who doesn’t love mini things?), and they make the perfect appetizer. Cut them in half and serve with guacamole and salsa. So delicious!
I know someone will ask if you can make this ahead of time, and to be honest, no. You won’t get the same effect the fresh ones give. You can totally prepare all of the ingredients ahead of time and assemble whenever you’re ready to make the paleo crunchwrap supreme. That could totally work, and it takes no time to put them together once you’ve mastered it.
This concludes Tostones Week 2018! I hope you had as much fun as I did!
