  3. Assemble the Crunchwraps: Working one at a time, place the ground beef mixture in the center of each tortilla. Top it with nacho cheese and a tostada shell. Spread sour cream evenly over the tostada shell, then layer with lettuce, diced tomato, and shredded cheese. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  4. Fold and Cook: Fold the edges of the tortilla up and over the center, working your way around to fold as tightly as possible.
