What's your go-to taco filling? I love that this one has a bit of everything! If you want to see more Barry Tries videos, I've got loads here: ruclips.net/p/PLfItiEY3o1msmCdkx49hQcmgh39L02lf5
If you're buying taco seasoning from the grocery store, most of them have a small amount of beef or chicken bullion. That's probably why they added cumin and the other seasoning, instead of another packet of seasoning. Also, I'm not sure if you can get it there where you are, but we have a Taco Bell brand seasoning here in Michigan. It's good, but it's not the same as the restaurant. 😊❤❤❤❤
The chicken and beef both used a whole packet of seasoning, so I think they had you make a mock seasoning for the veggies because they didn't want you to have a partial packet of seasoning left over.
Hi Barry! My Hubby unveiled some new tongs he purchased for us………they are from Joseph & Joseph! They put so much thought into even the most basic of tools 😁👍🏻
Hey yeah they are a top brand, I had an email from them about working with them once, but literally said I end up reviewing their stuff anyway as I like it so much lol
In the U.S. there are vegan mock meats that are really tasty, I use Gardein (there are other brands ofc) "chicken" strips, "beef tips" or "beef" crumble to make tacos and more. Great flavour, texture, and a few extra calories and more protein to make it satisfying (esp for a growing teenager). And plant-based cheeses have improved by orders of magnitude in just a couple years too. If y'all can find them in the UK, I highly recommend them.
I have recipes for taco seasoning and fajita seasoning. Found them online, didn't include the salt. So instead of just opening the package, I buy the individual spices because I will use the spices for other things.
Barry I love being in your kitchen- I literally feel like I’m there when you get lime juice on the lens and tell us to enjoy it! Cheers mate! This is why we all love you!
That looked great. I would definitely do that for xmas, new years or thanksgiving. I would combine the veg and beef ones and do that as a potluck dinner. Or the morning of xmas have the egg one for breakfast. Thanks for all your content Barry!
Suggestion: Make a flour and water paste, brush on the end flap this will seal and hold your wrap together. Makes it a little easier to handle and works great when making wraps, taquitos, enchiladas, or burritos.
Love your videos! But this one in particular made me wonder, how does your family adapt meals so that Phoebe can eat along with the family? I really only wondered because obviously you cook with a lot of meat sometimes and cooking seems like such a big part of y'alls household. I'd be interested to see what your typical family dinners are like. Just curious!
Looks amazing. I imagine the ones in the middle with no edge would be a bit of a nightmare so maybe this would be better at 1/2 or 1/3 size with a single filling and then make 2 or 3 for a party. Still benefit from not having to make individuals but everyone gets an edge and no mixed flavours in the middle.
I love that you still bite into things too early LOL. This is an awesome idea for a lot of people, though I'd take out a few ingredients like the tomatoes and crunchy bits, but otherwise awesome, and lets you sort of cook multiple meals/flavor options at once
Oh my gosh! This looks amazing! I'll have to try to make a crunchwrap! It's the only thing I get at Taco Bell, but now that I've seen you make it - I'm definitely going to give it a try! Thank you for sharing!
I know what Barry means about "taste buds changing". All my life I've loathed Dandelion and Burdock but was forced to have some and was shocked to find out that I liked it now for some strange reason.
My brother recently asked me to cook for some get togethers he has with colleagues, about 20 to 25 people. So I've been looking into ideas for that and this one definitely goes on the list! 👌👌
Have you cooked (well reheated) that chicken 3 times rotisserie then frying pan, then oven I thought reheating cooked chicken multiple times is a big no?
You could use quorn mince for Phoebe. For the cheesy sauce section try Doritos nacho cheese dip. It is vegetarian. I have never seen egg in it, but I put salad on according to the recipe I found which had the dip plus Mexicana cheese. Also I fried mine in a large paella pan.
Wensleydale is a creamy cheese quite strong flavoured on its own but often paired with cranberries which sweetens it up a lot, if you do like a crumbly but not dry/strong flavour cheese crumby Lancashire cheese is amazing... especially melted with a like milk in a dish under the grill.. perfect for dipping in bacon and toast 🤤🤤
@@mrbarrylewis hi Barry. It’s slightly creamy, but not that awful, almost sticks your teeth together stuff. It’s really nice on crackers, or toast - not cooked on the toast, just put on toast, like you would pate. And most of The supermarkets do a version, including the cheap ones, lol. New cheap versus steep idea - Welsh rarebit.
easy way to make this vegetarian/vegan friendly - swap the chicken and beef mince for vegtarian "chicken" bits and veggie mince (and hey maybe facon for the top? vegans would just omit the egg i guess)
I suspect they knew the veg section didn't have enough total to soak up all the salt in the sachet of seasoning. Personally I consider the original recipe to be a "proof of concept" in that there was no point in making a veg section in that one - but yeah a veg and egg crunchwrap at home sounds great.
I love that you respect her vegetarian diet, but I can't get over also a tiny bit of cross-contamination being a problem. Very cool of her to not eat meat though! Dish looks great! Spiced up ground chicken for please!
Samos4924 - you’re right (for the frying pan). I meant and didn’t say clearly enough - to BAKE the vegetarian filling with tortillas wrapping in another pan. 12:19
@@mrbarrylewis ty for making amazing videos. I have been around for a long time and always enjoy watching what you cook/bake up! Often makes me hungry lol. Thanks for responding and I hope you and the family have a wonderful week.
Sorry Barry but saying you love Mexican food while making Taco Bell is like saying you love Japanese food while eating a teriyaki burger from McDonalds :P
you know what you could do to separate the veg from other filling is to put like a barrier of crunchy taco in each side so it minimize the seepage of the meat juice
@@mrbarrylewissadly I only skips as crisps in and I don’t think they’ll work as a topping. Though I do want to try and get the ingredients to make something similar to todays video but vegan
So you clean the pan, tell Phoebe but she still doesn't trust you and wants to see a clip? What a wise young lady. 😁 So did she eat it, or just nibble at a corner?

Thankyou as always Daniel@@danielsantiagourtado3430
@@mrbarrylewisYou're welcome mate😊😊
Just love watching ur video ❤❤
I'm pretty basic ... meat, Cheese, lettuce, tomato and hot sauce/salsa
You could put some refried beans in the veggie section for a more hearty vegan meal -- and I reckon it would be good for the non-vegan one
Other options- tofu, seitan, cheese (for lacto ovo vegetarians).
@@shvat26 of course but refried beans is authentic and has Mexican spices.
yet he added bacon to it...

I’m craving this for tea tonight. I’m doing my weekly shop later so I know what to add. Maybe not that giant though 😅
haha yes, maybe a smaller tray!
Just make a normal crunch wrap. A lot easier to eat and you don't need to invest in a weeks worth of food up front.

That would be my breakfast, lunch and dinner. Substitute the veg for some apples, cream cheese and cinnamon and you've got dessert! Ooh baby ...
This!
Looks like it would make a great party food! Loved the sound of the cheese being sprinkled on the crunch layer, like a gentle falling rain ☔
LOVE your giant recipes barry! And my favorite filling has to bw carne asada!🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
If its an accurate recipe Barry is about to spend the next 3 days on the toilet.
Amazing! This looks so fun! Great job- love your giant foods
If I make this I'll have to add beans to the veg, like seasoned chili beans or refried beans.😋

If you put a section of this in front me a Christmas dinner, all I'd think of is 'hero'
I found tomatoes that I liked once. It was while I was in Paris. They were so good.
Suggestion: Make a flour and water paste, brush on the end flap this will seal and hold your wrap together. Makes it a little easier to handle and works great when making wraps, taquitos, enchiladas, or burritos.
The second tray and weight isn't to stop it from lifting but to compress the filling while it's cooking.

Kind of funny that Barry does a giant Crunchwrap the day before Flair made a breakfast duck crunchwrap after going hunting.
Gaaaaahd why do I always watch your videos late at night when I am hungry afffffffffff..... DAMMIT! BARRY! THAT LOOKS AMAZING!!!!!

I think what I'd like to try is regular wraps, but 1/2 of it is taco meat filling and the other 1/2 is chicken fajita filling.
So glad you got rid of the camera man Barry! These videos are sooo much more fun and engaging! Good work!

@@mrbarrylewisik i Will mate
Hi Barry! Can you also try the Timpano? 😁 it'll be a challenge. 😁😁😁 but i think you'll like it.
I did not know what this was! I've just Googled it, consider it a thing I want to try!
Looking forward to it! 😊😊😊 Excellent video by the way, I made a comment first before watching it. 😅😅😅 I want to make tacos now. 😋😋😋
I AM SO TRYING THIS! Thanks Barry, Top Job!
Another great video, Barry! After watching this, I might actually try making these (regular sized ones though) at home.
Cool i would love to see more of these dump recipes like for breakfast, and dinner! Feed 15 recipes
I genuinely never knew that frozen chopped onions were a thing. That will save my eyes a lot of trouble!
Love your giant foods & that looked delicious 😋 Thanks Barry 🤗
I really love watching Barry. ❤
That was so absolutely awesome and looked so good! :)
I made this thicker in a lasagna pan with more layers of stuff. Excellent
You definetly made it work. Looks delicious. 👌
That looks amazing, Al pastor for the next one!
That might be a cool recipe for the Super Bowl for the USA football game
You could add some rice and beans to the veggie side- yum Refried beans
Have you cooked (well reheated) that chicken 3 times rotisserie then frying pan, then oven I thought reheating cooked chicken multiple times is a big no?
i think the skillet on top was to make it heavy so it gets the official crunchwrap look
Yep deffo! It probably wouldn't have squished much more if I'd pressed down so got lucky that other pan fitted on top alright!
Hot, but pleasant. A wonderful combination of attributes in many forms.
3:07 i got you barry. I still hate raw tomatoes but i LOVE to use them in cooking! So many varietes right? Whats your favorite application for them?
Caprese for now!
@@mrbarrylewisyummy! 🤤🤤🤤🤤
Love the video lime and coconut shake it all up taco good
I thought that having the second pan on top and weighed down was to compact the fillings as it baked.
Seems to be so, it was pretty squished in there to be fair when I put the other tray on, it wouldn't press down much

Nice ideas Vicky!
Tofu scramble would work instead of the egg for vegans
Cheese wise, You should try Wensleydale with cranberries mate, it’s super lush.
What's the flavour like? I like cranberries, is it a creamy cheese?

New cheap versus steep idea - Welsh rarebit.
Would not call Taco Bell authentic Mexican food, but I will say that I want to at some point make a Crunchwrap supreme for myself. 😂
the reason you need more beef mince is that it will lose moisture while cooking and the chicken is precooked.
With four side it gone be difficult to choose which one to have
They say your taste buds change every 7 years. We just buy are bell peppers and onions chop them up and put in freezer bags
12:30 : Barry has become the seal
That looks yummy !!!
Why does he keep laughing?
The veggie section needs beans! The same amount of beans as you used for meat, black beans and pinto beans.
Loved this !! ❤
Air Fryer! 😊
So, with the tostada shells, your egg section is basically a megas.
How much did that cost to make?
I was expecting this again on my time line, Tom Scott....then Barry Lewis.....funny that this is predictable.
We basically sit next to eachother and go 4,3,2,1 GO! Well, not really, but that is an amazing video idea lol
Wait, frozen chopped onions are a thing? WHERE? I neeeeeeed it!
9:26 could have used flavoured nachos chips to add extra flavour
Yeah great call
@@mrbarrylewischeese nachos would be great
Now you know you have the perfect oven for a giant crunchwrap supreme, which is not a thing many men can say
I'm getting SO HUNGRY, I need to eat that right now
easy way to make this vegetarian/vegan friendly - swap the chicken and beef mince for vegtarian "chicken" bits and veggie mince (and hey maybe facon for the top? vegans would just omit the egg i guess)
There's also cheese. Though Chloe apparently has been trying non-dairy, so they'd be going low dairy anyway.
This is going to take tuckos to a hole new level 😅😅
What is the difference between Barrys tastebuds and a wheel of cheese?
Barry's tastebuds mature, but the cheese that Barry eats should not. :D
Brielliant
@@mrbarrylewis Ohh, it was Gouda of you to answer. :)
"Hot but pleasant" was my nickname in college
To be honest, melted cheese is the superior form of most cheese.

A yes, the famously mild cheese... cheddar??
I had an early dinner moments before watching this, now I am craving a crunchwrap and I don't even rate Taco Bell for "Mexican" food in England.
Taco Bell is very much not Mexican. At a push it’s TexMex. But it’s like the McDonald’s of Tex Mex
@@chrisjfinlay Aye, inverted comma's should have said how Mexican it is.
Not many calories in that then!
I love that you respect her vegetarian diet, but I can't get over also a tiny bit of cross-contamination being a problem. Very cool of her to not eat meat though! Dish looks great! Spiced up ground chicken for please!
Maybe cook the vegetarian version in a separate pan.
@@shvat26 Or cook the vegetarian version first. I doubt too many meat eaters would object to the reverse of the cross contamination.

I guess more beef because it's more fatty? So when it's cooked it will be less than the chicken. Of course it depends on how lean the beef is.
Yeah was thinking it might shrink a bit as it wasn't cooked already vs the chicken

"Hot but pleasant" was actually how people described the girl I went to prom with.

So you clean the pan, tell Phoebe but she still doesn't trust you and wants to see a clip? What a wise young lady. 😁
So did she eat it, or just nibble at a corner?
She's very selective what she eats!
With that amount of onion, there's going to be a toxic gas warning in effect where you live... :P
Thought I was the only weirdo who hates cheese unless its melted
What ever happened to the other guy that used to make giant food with you
I love the shirt peppa pig🫰🏻😂
No beans?!?!?
You lost me at the egg section, I had to stop eating before I regurgitated.
It's a shame you've never had real mexican food. It's a lot more developed and complex than a pile of mince with paprika and strange cheese
Per kilo frozen vegetables are actually more expensive on average
Really? I didn't know that, guess it depends where you get your veg!
