Timed to coincide with the launch of nomoo’s new proprietary plant-based “beef” patty, the new Cheezy-Crunch Tacos are a delicious meat-free take on [hard shell tacos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dorado-tacos). The new dish starts with the brand's new seasoned plant-based "beef," paired with fresh avocado, ranch salsa, cheddar Cheeze (which is also plant-based), and lettuce. This tasty plant-based combo is then all wrapped up in one hard and one soft corn tortilla and held together by a "glue" of melted cheddar Cheeze. For even more cheesy goodness, the new taco are served with a side of house-made and plant-based Queso for dipping. The new Cheezy-Crunch Tacos and a new Crispy Chick’n Kale Caesar are available now.
