With Cinco de Mayo just around the corner, [Pizza Inn](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nyxl-pizza) has expanded its All Day Buffet lineup to include a new [Taco Pizza](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/double-crunch-pizza) and a Chicken Fajita Pizza. In other words, now you can enjoy a [tex-mex take](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-chicago-pizza-taproom) on everyone's favorite take-out dish.

The two new pizzas from Pizza Inn have been dubbed the 'Fiesta Pizzas,' due to their tex-mex style toppings. The first of the new offerings is the Taco Pizza, which takes the chain's hand-made crust and adds taco meat, shredded lettuce, diced tomato, and cheddar cheese. On the other hand, the Chicken Fajita Pizza combines the chain's signature crust with fajita-style chicken, green bell peppers, onions, diced tomatoes, black olives, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, and something called picante sauce. Best of all, both pizzas are available all day long.
