(upbeat exciting music)
(jazz music)
- All right. So now, we're standing.
- We're standing.
- We must be on my show now. - Yeah.
- Oh okay, hey, welcome to my show.
- I'm excited.
Real food!
- Yeah, dude.
Whole ingredients.
We made all this ourselves.
We wanted to make healthier versions
of the stuff that we tasted,
particularly the Crunchwrap Supreme.
The breakfast one, and the classic Crunchwrap.
We wanted to make them tasty,
but packed with more nutrients,
made with whole ingredients,
not loaded with, I can't remember any of those words.
Propylene something.
And also, pretty easy to make.
And meal prepped, so you can wrap them up, freeze them.
- Are you telling me we've created
the healthier more practical,
the more consumable, the more portable version of Taco Bell?
- And you get to throw meal prep in there,
which people love.
- Ooh, I love the word meal prep.
- Yeah. - That's an SEO word.
- An SEO word?
- Yeah.
- Let's add that to the, uh, SEO.
So, the procedure of wrapping a Crunchwrap,
I have never done.
Have you ever wrapped a Crunchwrap?
- Never. - Okay.
I watched the instructional video.
- There's an instructional video?
- Yeah, and it's weird.
There's this CGI, she looks like a Sim
from the first Sims.
- (laughs) Okay. - Just being like-
- [Computer] Now let's fold the Crunchwrap Supreme.
- And you do it with a mouse.
I watched how it's made.
The folds are very simple.
We just have to keep a cool head about it.
- Okay. - Everything's gonna be fine.
- I'm gonna bring all my medical expertise in this
to try and not fail.
- Medical expertise in the kitchen.
This is a first for me.
- There are knives. - Oh okay.
So, I'm gonna heat up this griddle,
because no matter what tortillas you're using,
you wanna heat them up a little bit first,
'cause- - Okay.
- Oop.
- And this feels whole wheat. Is this whole wheat?
- Yeah. Now we wanted to make it as healthy as possible.
So we went for whole wheat, we went for flax.
- Well you've got some Omega-3s here.
- Oh yeah.
- Got some fiber.
- Flax seed. I think that's good for regrowing hair
or something, I don't know.
And what we're gonna do, is warm 'em up on a flat top.
Just like this.
- I'm not gonna put this one on,
because this is the one that was on the floor.
- True.
- I'll just eat this one, right now.
All right so we start with the beef then.
This is 94% lean beef.
- Okay that's great.
- [Kendall] 93%.
- It's 93% lean beef.
- You were only a percent off.
- The leanest beef we could find.
Obviously not gonna have as much flavor as a fattier beef,
so we made our own taco seasoning, we added tomato paste,
we added something we think Taco Bell does
which is bouillon base.
It's got a little more beefy flavor.
All right so I'm gonna put down a layer of beef,
and then on top of that goes some cheese sauce.
Now, I'm super proud of this cheese sauce.
We put everything in the blender, except for the cheese.
Blitz it for five minutes to make a perfect bechamel,
and then we added cheese and blitz for another minute.
And this is hours old and it's still smooth as hell.
- Wow. - Yes it is.
- [Kendall] Did you wanna wear aprons.
- Oh yeah let's wear aprons.
- Can you knight me? - Oh absolutely.
- Is this like a knighting ceremony?
- Finally we're the same height.
Welcome to the BCU. - Oh wow!
Is this pocket for accessories?
- Sure. - Okay.
- What do you wanna put in there?
- I don't know, fork?
In case I get hungry.
- That's very smart.
On top of that we're gonna do some of our queso.
It's real cheese sauce made from butter, flour,
skimmed milk, and cheese.
- These are whole food.
Natural ingredients. - Yeah.
- This isn't paste made with 35 questionable
lab quality ingredients.
- These are an add-on, but you love beans so much.
These are- - Ooh!
- Refried black beans.
- Oh yes!
- We heard that you like black beans.
- I love black beans.
- This is a little bit of onions
sauteed in some light olive oil, add beans and their juices.
Let the juices cook down, mash 'em up and that's it.
- I love it. It's a healthy bean dish.
- Now on top of that goes that titular ingredient,
other than the wrap part of this, which is the crunch.
And instead of a deep fried corn tortilla,
we just spray it with non-stick spray,
which is just aerosolized vegetable oil.
And just baked it in a convection oven or an air fryer,
if that's your thing, to make 'em nice and crisp,
and probably a lot less fat than you'd get
from deep frying.
- Look at that.
- Perfect. Now on top of that goes lettuce, tomato,
and our sauce options.
- Ooh we have options. - Yes.
For sauces we have two options.
First up we have our sour cream alternative.
This is Icelandic greek yogurt,
which is very, very thick.
Very, very good for as I understand.
- Yes. We've got some good cultures, some probiotics,
our guts are gonna be happy.
- Then we have our approximation of the ever popular
creamy jalapeno sauce.
This is also yogurt,
but we've also quick pickled some jalapenos,
added some of the pickling juice, some chopped jalapenos,
and a bunch of spices-
- One to ten how spicy?
- I'll test it for you. Hmm, okay.
- It's spicy?
- It's a step beyond Tabasco I would say.
It is one step beyond Tabasco.
- I'm gonna put a little bit on.
- So now this, this is off menu.
- This is off menu.
- You can't get this at Taco Bell.
- Where do you get this?
Where does one go to get a poblano.
- Any grocery store. - Oh.
- You've probably seen these in the grocery store,
and they taste amazing.
- Really?
- This is just peppers roasted.
If you'd like to try it.
- I would.
- They're very mildly spicy,
but they have more flavor than you'd imagine.
- Mm. - Especially the green pepper.
Tastes like grass.
(muffled chatter)
(suspenseful music)
- (coughs) Spicy.
- Okay, I'm gonna do the poblanos.
And you already tried with the hot sauce.
(Dr. Mike clears throat)
Let's hold it there.
So now we've filled our crunch wrap.
Before it gets to sog, we gotta fold it up and fry it.
So you start with a single fold here.
I'm gonna do it towards the camera.
And then you just start grabbing corners.
You grab this corner. - Okay.
- And fold it in. - Okay.
- Oh this looks-
- Oh this is almost like wrapping a newborn baby.
- What? Is this how you wrap a newborn?
- Yes! (coughs) It's called a burrito wrap.
- Yeah, you just grab them corners folding.
And cnce you get to the last two, you just keep going
and that's that.
Tell me that's not a Crunchwrap Supreme,
and I'll punch you right in the mouth.
Not you, I wouldn't do that to you.
- That's okay, I'm used to being punched in the face.
- [Boxer] Ugh.
- Now yours is tearing so I wanna move fast
on this. - Okay.
- All right so we're just gonna lay down
just a sheen of oil.
Here do you wanna do it?
- Okay, yeah how do I do it?
Just throw it? - Just put it fold side down.
- Fold side down.
- Yeah, yeah. And just put it down.
- And that's it? - That's it.
- So I'm like a chef?
- You're not like a chef, you are a chef.
- Wow!
- We're just gonna cook 'em very slowly and very lowly,
so that they heat through.
I want these to look good inside.
And here are out healthier Crunchwrap Supremes.
- (sniffs) Ah that smells so good.
- So, okay I'm gonna do cross-section.
- Okay do a cross-section.
- Let's take a look.
(inhales) I mean look. - Some veg in there.
There's more veg in this one,
than anything we've tried at Taco Bell before.
- Okay let's try it out.
(tacos crunch)
- Wow
- So, that's our healthy version of the Crunchwrap Supreme.
What do you think?
- I mean, honestly I hate giving ratings that are too good,
but this is a 10 out of 10.
- Oh my god.
He's just a nice guy. - No, no, no.
The ingredients are fire, there's beans, it's whole wheat,
there's true vegetables in here,
the sauces are made responsibly.
What more could I ask of a meal.
- Wow, I'm flattered.
Thank you so much. - Cheers.
- Cheers.
- So, let's make the least healthy item at Taco Bell.
Which you taught me is the-
- Breakfast Crunchwrap Supreme.
- So. - Ooh.
- In place of the breakfast sausage,
we have some chicken breakfast sausage.
- Okay.
- The only sugar in this is a teaspoon of brown sugar,
just 'cause breakfast sausage likes that.
The rest is spices and herbs and these guys.
So we took a can of chickpeas, we drained and dried them,
and then we mashed 'em up with a quarter of a grated onion
and an egg.
And then seasoned it with a little bit of salt,
and then we just sprayed it with spray oil.
And roasted it in a convection oven
'til it got nice an crisp.
And I'll take a sacrificial one,
but as you can see these guys are crisp.
- Crisp.
- So these are giving us a lot of protein, a lot of fiber.
Chickpeas are wonderful. - Great source of both.
- And for cheese because the breakfast crunchwrap
doesn't have the cheese sauce as straight up cheese.
- Hm.
- We went with a mild Swiss.
- Okay.
- Because it's much lower in calories.
It's aged a little bit, so there's less lactose in it.
Nicer for me,
and it's generally considered one of the healthier cheeses.
- Okay.
Yeah, sharper cheese. - Sharper, yeah.
Is that not healthier? Swiss?
- It's healthy in moderation.
- (laughs) The thing his voice did when he said that.
(Dr. Mike laughs)
It's healthy um.
- It's upgraded.
- We're upgrading. We're making it taste better,
and we're making it not so goddal.
- You're making it whole food.
- Yeah.
- A whole food Crunchwrap Supreme.
- All right, hash brown.
- Hash brown, chickpea hashbrown.
Chickpea hash brown, chicken hash brown.
- And then we have instead of boring eggs,
we have egg whites.
- Ooh.
- Which are higher, lower in stuff and higher in others.
- Lower in cholesterol, good protein content.
- So now on top of this, I'm gonna go with a light Swiss.
Which I thought was healthier, I don't think it is.
- I need to look that up.
I've never, to be honest,
I've never compared the nutrition facts
of different cheeses.
- That's interesting.
And once our cheese, that is at least lower in calories
than most other cheeses, is laid down,
all that's left to do is close and cook
the crunchwrap identically to the first version.
And so we have our breakfast.
- Ooh. - Crunchwrap Supremes.
- They're thick. - Oh can you do mine?
- Oh yeah.
(Babish and Dr. Mike laugh)
- You don't wanna- - No you do it so good.
It's fun to watch. Oh god.
- I'm sure you do the same thing in surgery.
- It's like watching a surgeon.
- I know exactly.
- This look so nice.
- It's a pretty nice cross-section right? That works.
Let's try it.
(tacos crunch)
- What's your reaction? I can't tell.
- I think it was really good,
and then the chickpeas kind of confused me a little bit.
- Agreed.
- [Kendall] Have a second bite. I say this because
the first time I ate the chickpea patty,
I said I don't care for that.
I had a second bite and I cared for it.
- Okay.
(tacos crunch)
- You know I wonder if it's necessary?
- I would just go sans chickpeas.
- They're strange.
- It's dryness. - They have graininess too.
- Graininess.
- All right so forget the chickpeas. Forget we did that.
- No, but I mean you have to swing.
You can't hit a home run unless you swing.
- You gotta swing, all right.
You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
- Who said that?
- Michael Scott. - Oh.
- Well look man, thank you so much for coming by today.
Not only was I really excited to cook for you,
I learned a lot about nutrition.
About some things I thought were healthy,
some things I thought were unhealthy, you filled me in.
- Generally you're already doing a great job,
there's not much for me to add.
Whole food ingredients, healthy ingredients.
Making it on your own, as you said, is the way to go.
- I was about to say,
I think we can both agree on the fact that
cooking for yourself is an unequivocally health activity.
- Yes.
- It burns calories. It makes you feel good about yourself.
It's a skill to learn,
and you have control over what you are eating.
- And you forgot the most important part.
It's healthy for the soul.
- It's healthy for the soul.
So, get on out there.
You gotta shoot, you gotta swing. (laughs)
- You gotta swing.
