Get ready for the ultimate breakfast on-the-go with this CopyCat California A.M. Crunchwrap. It’s stuffed with fluffy eggs, melted cheese, crispy hash browns, smoky bacon, creamy California avocado and fresh pico de gallo all wrapped up in a tortilla and grilled to perfection.
A few weeks ago my brother-in-law came to me and told me all about Taco Bell’s new breakfast line up. Being a long time fan of the establishment, I immediately wanted to try it. He asked if I could make him some of these breakfast wraps and seeing as I had tons of California avocados to use up, I was more than happy to give it a try.
Oh my heavens you guys!! This is the most glorious way to eat a hearty breakfast on the go!
It’s also super easy to throw together! My kids scarfed these down like there was no tomorrow, then promptly asked me to make them again for dinner.
How could I say no to that?!
You’ll want to start by making sure you have all your ingredients prepped and ready to go. Scramble up some eggs, fry some bacon and bake your frozen hash brown patties to crispy golden perfection.
First lay down a layer of cheese on a large tortilla. Get the largest tortillas you can find!
Next place a hash brown patty on top, followed by the scramble eggs and a strip of crumbled up bacon.
Mash up some California avocado with a fork and spread it on top.
Follow the avocado with some pico de gallo. Next you’re going to fold the tortilla in a wheel pattern up and around the filling, closing it all in there.
Heat two large heavy bottomed skillets over medium heat then lay the crunchwrap in the skillet and place the bottom of the other hot skillet on top, pressing it down.
I used my Lodge cast iron skillets, and if you look closely enough you can see that it’s engraved the symbol in the tortilla! ha!
These were so easy and so delicious, that I can totally see myself making these all the time!
The crunchy hash browns with the creamy avocado and smoky bacon are a match made in heaven!
You’re definitely going to want to get your hands around this one!

Great idea. Honestly I am not a fan of Taco bell i tend to think they use the cheapest ingredients to make sure college students don’t starve – a worthy cause. So making this at home with fresh ingredients sounds perfect. Will try it with a whole wheat tortilla 🙂

I personally survived off of Taco Bell when I was in college, so I agree with this statement. 😉

I wish you could have shown how to ACTUALLY WRAP the tortillas. I can NEVER wrap those things. I’ve never heard of wrapping them like THIS! I’ll try it anyway!
Shawn
I’ll be honest with you. I did take photos of myself wrapping it. But it was super awkward trying to wrap it with one hand and take a photo with the other. :/ I’ll make you a deal, I’ll throw the images into the post as long as you promise to pretend they are awesome photos. 😉 hehe.
