This past December, Taco Bell debuted two new spicy versions of its popular Crunchwrap Sliders. In recent years, many consumers have gravitated towards handheld food items that facilitate on-the-go snacking. These tasty new sliders provide a portable snack option that doesn't skimp on flavor.
The new Crunchwrap Sliders come in two different varieties: Sriracha Chicken and Spicy Beefy Nacho. The former consists of shredded chicken, Fritos Corn Chips and Taco Bell's homemade Sriracha sauce. The latter includes seasoned ground beef, chipotle sauce, Fritos corn chips and nacho cheese sauce. Both are wrapped hexagonally in a flour tortilla and then grilled. This method of preparation prevents the toppings from falling out, making the wraps ideal for eating on the go.
The new Crunchwrap Sliders demonstrate the demand for dishes that are not only portable, but also flavorful.
