Taco Bell is once again upping the ante with its new Toasted Cheddar Street Chalupas. The only catch is that this item is still in the testing phase.
For a limited time, participating Taco Bell locations in the Houston, Texas area will be selling the new Toasted Cheddar Street Chalupas. Just as the name suggests, the star ingredient of the new dish is a pair of extra cheesy, street-sized toasted cheddar chalupa shells. Inside these cheesy shells, you'll find a savory combination of your choice of protein (either Cantina Slow-Roasted Chicken or grilled, marinated steak), cilantro, onions, shredded cheddar cheese, and the brand's new Chile Lime Crema Sauce.
While similar to the Cheesy Street Chalupas launched earlier this year, the new version featured the extra crispy and extra cheesy cheddar chalupa shells.
