Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Gather all your delicious Thanksgiving leftovers, including shredded turkey, mashed potatoes, green beans, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and shredded cheddar cheese. In a large mixing bowl, combine these ingredients and stir gently to meld the flavors together. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, allowing the savory goodness to blend beautifully as you prepare your Crunchwrap.
  2. Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean working surface. Spoon a generous amount of your prepared filling into the center of the tortilla, making sure not to overfill. Fold the edges of the tortilla inward over the filling, creating a secure wrap. Gently press down to seal the Crunchwrap, ensuring it is tightly closed to prevent any deliciousness from escaping during cooking.
  3. Place a large skillet over medium heat and let it preheat for about 3 minutes. If desired, lightly spray the skillet with cooking oil to enhance crispiness and prevent sticking.
  4. Carefully add the sealed Crunchwrap to the preheated skillet, placing it seam-side down. Cook for 2–3 minutes, allowing it to develop a beautiful golden brown color and a satisfying crunch. Once the first side is nicely browned, gently flip it over using a spatula and repeat cooking for another 2–3 minutes on the opposite side until golden and crispy.
  5. Once both sides of your Thanksgiving Crunchwrap are crispy and golden, carefully remove it from the skillet. Let it cool for about a minute on a cutting board, then slice it in half for easy serving. Enjoy your delicious creation with warm gravy on the side for dipping, making each bite a wonderful reminder of holiday flavors wrapped in this delightful Crunchwrap!
