Have you guys seen the tiktok tortilla (aka the tiktok wrap hack) that’s floating around the internets?! I think it’s the most genius way to fold a tortilla wrap ever.

Mike showed me an Instagram reel of someone wrap hacking and afterwards I spent way too long doing a deep dive and watching mesmerizing videos of people wrap hacking all the things. Have you ever thought of putting chicken nuggets in a wrap? Or noodles?! I saw that!

TikTok wrap hack?

After a little bit of sleuthing, I found out on BuzzFeed that the first person to do the wrap hack was @ellcarter1 on TikTok. The wrap hack is now mega trending and there have been hundreds of wrap hacks popping up!

Anyway, if you haven’t seen it, the wrap hack is basically the smartest way to make a wrap. You make a cut from the middle of the tortilla down to one edge, fill the different quadrants with fillings, then fold it all up into a neat triangle that can be eaten as is or grilled. I don’t know about you, but sometimes, when I make wraps they burst or split. Because this wrap isn’t rolled, there isn’t any chance of that. All your fillings stay inside the wrap and it’s super easy and neat to eat.

What is the TikTok wrap hack?

The wrap hack is a super simple way to wrap up tortilla wraps! Instead of rolling all the fillings up, the tortilla is folded into quarters, making a compact, triangle shaped wrap.

I especially love that you can infinitely customize the wrap hack! Anything goes. Think: pizza, breakfast, healthy vegetables, sweet stuff. The sky is the limit. For my very first wrap hack I made a crunchwrap supreme: super savory juicy seasoned ground beef, melty cheese, crisp lettuce with fresh tomatoes, sour cream, and crunchy tortillas chips, all wrapped up and grilled up to perfection. SO GOOD. Here’s how to do it!

TikTok tortilla: sushi edition

Finally, if you’re loving the TikTok tortilla hack but want to do DIY sushi, try it out with nori! It’s been floating around lately and it’s way easier than rolling sushi at home. Even though seaweed sheets/nori are squares and not round, it essentially works the same way. All you need is a large sheet of nori, some sushi rice, toppings, and a sauce of your choice.

We went with salmon, avocado, cucumber, sriracha and mayo for a spicy salmon roll feel. To make it, cut halfway through the nori sheet to the center, add your toppings to the different quadrants, fold and enjoy. Feel free to add on some furikake (rice seasoning) or toasted sesame seeds.

I can’t wait to wrap hack ALL the things. What’s on your wrap hack wish list?!

    Unbelievable. It just came out really good unexpectedly. Thanks for the recipe.

  2. Rishabh says:

    Nice

  3. Lisa says:

    very interesting, but I can’t conceive how to fold it without all the toppings falling off. I know myself well enough to know it would be a miracle if I could flip that first quarter over the second without the lettuce and tomatoes going everywhere. lol. go forward and wrap though y’all. :D

    1. Sara says:

      I agree! I just let that first quarter be plain, or use it to spread only sauce or nacho cheese. Once you do that first fold the rest is easier

    2. Wren says:

      Just leave the first quarter bare, and double layer the second quarter with what’s supposed to be on the first quarter, then fold.

    I made this vegetarian by using vegan chili instead of meat. It was great! Next time, I would probably Not cook the lettuce because It was kind of weird hot and I might change the cheese and lettuce compartment so that cheese shreds are not on the outside because they fall out when I cook it.
    Thanks for this!
