Following in the footsteps of other QSR brands, Qdoba has added a new Impossible Fajita Bowl and Impossible Burrito to its menu. Made with plant-based Impossible meat, the new options will cater to vegan, vegetarian, and flexitarian consumers alike.
Qdoba's new Impossible Fajita Bowl combines seasoned Impossible meat with rice, black beans, smoked chiles, tomatoes, garlic, paprika, red onions, and sautéed bell peppers. The Impossible Burrito is similar in that it takes the same plant-based Impossible meat and pairs it with rice, black beans, and veggies. The burrito also features a flavorful corn salsa and a drizzle of savory tortilla soup.
For those who want to enjoy the new plant-based protein their own way, Qdoba is also expanding its catering options with Impossible meat.
