High Protein Crunchwrap Supreme
A high protein version of the iconic Taco Bell Order.
By Ethan ChlebowskiGreat macros thanks to a high protein tortilla and lean beef.
One pound of ground beef makes enough for 4-5 crunchwraps, but I usually make a double batch of the seasoned beef and freeze half for later use.
I always make a homemade taco seasoning spice blend, but if using store-bought packets, omit the extra salt.
