How to Make high protein chipotle lime crunchwrap supremes
- Using a chef’s knife on a cutting board, finely chop the bell pepper and onion. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the chopped vegetables, sautéing them with a wooden spoon until softened.
- Add the fresh minced garlic to the skillet and stir with the wooden spoon, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Push the sautéed vegetables to one side of the skillet using a silicone spatula.
- Add the lean ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with the wooden spoon. Cook until the beef is browned and fully cooked, stirring occasionally.
- Sprinkle the low sodium taco seasoning over the beef mixture, stirring with the wooden spoon to evenly coat the meat. Pour in the beef stock and continue to stir, allowing the mixture to simmer.
- Open the can of green chilies using a can opener and add them to the skillet. Stir in the adobo sauce from chipotle peppers using the wooden spoon, ensuring everything is well combined.
- Squeeze the juice of two limes into the skillet using a citrus juicer or by hand. Stir the mixture with the wooden spoon to incorporate the lime juice evenly.
- Lay out the tostadas on a clean work surface. Spread a layer of Greek yogurt on each tostada using a silicone spatula, followed by a handful of fresh chopped lettuce and freshly grated cheese.
- Spoon the beef mixture evenly onto each tostada using a ladle or large spoon. Fold the corners of the tostadas inward to create a wrap, pressing gently to seal.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and place the assembled wraps seam-side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, flipping with a spatula, until golden brown and crispy.
Expert Tips
For the best results, use freshly grated cheese—it melts better than pre-shredded varieties. If your wraps aren’t sealing well, lightly dampen the edges of the tostada before folding. For extra crispiness, press down gently on the wraps while they cook in the skillet.

Variations
Swap the ground beef for ground turkey or shredded chicken for a lighter option. Vegetarian? Use black beans or crumbled tofu instead of meat. For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños or extra chipotle peppers.

Healthier Alternatives
Opt for low-fat Greek yogurt instead of sour cream to cut calories without sacrificing creaminess. Use whole-grain or low-carb tortillas if you prefer a lighter wrap. Reduce sodium by making your own taco seasoning blend.
