The menu item consists of a crispy shell that has been topped with aged cheddar cheese before being filled with eggs, bacon or sausage and a nacho cheese sauce. These ingredients work together to blur the lines between meals and make the Taco Bell Breakfast Toasted Cheese Chalupa seem like something that's a tasty brunch option to enjoy when out of the house.
