These Beef Crunch Wraps are big on two things - flavour and crunch! The beef mince is flavoured with the classic Mexican combo of smoked paprika, ground cumin and garlic. This is then topped with your favourite, crunchy corn chips, fresh salad ingredients and cheese. The wraps are folded up into individual parcels, then pan-fried until golden on the outside and the cheese is melty on the inside.
