Set to hit menus nation-wide on April 5th, the new dish provides an easy way to satisfy a [cheese craving](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheezit-menu). The Triple Melt Burrito is the latest addition to Taco Bell's $1 menu. The dish itself consists of seasoned beef, a gooey, shredded three-cheese blend, and a serving of nacho cheese all wrapped up in a warm, flour tortilla. While the burrito is easy to enjoy on the go, those who have time to spare can enjoy the same toppings over a bed of tortilla chips as Triple Melt Nachos.
