How to Store
Wrap leftover crunchwraps tightly in foil or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or oven to restore crispness.
What Not to Do
- Do not overfill the tortilla, or it will be difficult to fold and seal.
- Avoid high heat when toasting, as the tortilla may burn before the inside warms.
- Do not skip resting the wrap briefly after cooking; this helps it hold together.
Tips & Variations
- Use pepper jack cheese for added heat.
- Swap meat for sautéed mushrooms or spinach for a vegetarian option.
- Add sliced avocado after cooking for extra creaminess.
- Serve with salsa or extra sour cream on the side.
