While Taco Bell may have cut several items from its menu this year, that hasn't stopped the chain from introducing new creations like the Black Bean Toasted Cheddar Chalupa, Black Bean Chalupa, and Veggie Nachos Party Pack.
Taco Bell's new Black Bean Toasted Cheddar Chalupa is a delicious take on the classic pairing of beans and cheese. The new dish consists of a taco shell that's been coated in six-month aged cheddar and then toasted. The cheesy shell is then filled with black beans, diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, and reduced-fat sour cream. Similarly, the new Black Bean Chalupa takes almost the same ingredients, but with a regular Chalupa shell on the outside. To round out the vegetarian-friendly menu, there's a Veggie Nachos Party Pack made with tortilla chips, beans, nacho cheese sauce, jalapeños, guacamole, diced tomatoes, and reduced-fat sour cream.
