[Taco Bell Canada](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loaded-fries-pocket) is giving fans a delicious new way to enjoy the classic combination of cheese and ground beef with the debut of the [Stacker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stacker-burgers).

Priced at just $3 per serving, the Stacker is the latest addition to the brand's Taco Bell Canada’s [value-driven menu](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxe-value-menu). As you might have guessed from the name, the Stacker is essentially a stacked quesadilla that consists of a flour tortilla filled with seasoned beef, a three-cheese blend, and nacho cheese sauce, all folded twice to create cheesy layers and then grilled until crispy brown.

The Stacker is a limited-time offering that can be ordered on its own, or as part of a Stacker Value Meal, which comes with regular fries and a fountain drink for just $4.99.
