Homemade Crunch Wrap

Another use for the lettuce roll meat mixture.

Start by verifying the calorie/fat/fiber combo of your 1-point flour tortilla shell and a small corn tortilla = no more than 2 points.

(Optional step)
Brush one side of the corn shell with lime juice and hot sauce, sprinkling with cumin

Place corn tortilla in toaster oven for 3-6 minutes

While it’s toasting, combine

  • 1/4 cup seasoned ground meat (I used the meat mix for points-calculating.  Be sure to adjust your points-total if you use a different meat)
  • 1/2 wedge light laughing cow Cheese

Microwave to warm/melt, and stir.

Warm flour tortilla in microwave to soften, then spread meat and cheese in center.

Spread toasted corn tortilla with 1T (or less) light sour cream, and set on meat in shell.

If you’ve got less than 2-inches clearance to the outer edge, your finished product will look better if you break the corn shell into quarters.  Yes, sorry, it seems tacky, but once its broken in that way, you’ll be able to maintain your layers however tight you have to wrap up your edges.

On top of your crunchy shell you’ll have just enough room for a thin layer of veggies

  • Thin-sliced pepper
  • lettuce
  • tomato bits

Beginning on one side and moving in one direction all the way around, fold up the edges over the middle.

Place folded-side down in a frying pan (non-stick or prepped with cooking spray) and cook until toasted (~3 minutes on medium-low). Turn and repeat on reverse side.

I will sometimes hold the flipping spatula on the top of the wrap to press the folds together until they set.

Recipe yields one 4-pt serving.
