Ingredients

Crunchwraps

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup leftover mashed potatoes
  • 1 cup leftover green beans
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded leftover turkey
  • 1 cup leftover cranberry sauce
  • 1 cup leftover stuffing
  • 1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup gravy, warmed, for serving
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. Prepare the tortillas: Spread 1/4 cup of mashed potatoes in the center of each large flour tortilla. Layer on the green beans, shredded turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, and top with shredded white cheddar, evenly distributing the ingredients on each tortilla.
  2. Wrap the crunchwraps: Carefully fold the edges of each tortilla around the fillings, creating pleats to secure the contents in the center. Once wrapped, invert each crunchwrap so the pleats are on the bottom to keep them tightly sealed.
  3. Heat the pan: Place a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat and add a very thin layer of vegetable oil to prevent sticking and promote crisping.
  4. Cook the crunchwraps: Working one at a time, place each crunchwrap seam-side down in the pan. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes until the tortilla is golden brown on the bottom, then carefully flip and cook an additional 3 to 5 minutes on the other side until golden and crispy.
  5. Serve: Repeat with remaining crunchwraps. Slice each in half and serve warm with the warmed gravy on the side for dipping or drizzling.

Notes

  • Use leftover turkey and sides for authentic flavor, but fresh cooked ingredients can also be used.
  • Keep the heat at medium to avoid burning the tortillas before the fillings warm through.
  • If the tortillas crack while folding, warm them slightly before assembling to make them more pliable.
  • Vegetable oil can be substituted with olive oil or butter for cooking.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in a skillet or air fryer for best texture.
