Taco Bell may be known for its tacos, burritos, and quesadillas, but now the chain appears to be moving in a different direction with its new Grilled Cheese Biscuit.
Currently, in the testing phase, the new Grilled Cheese Biscuit has only been spotted at select locations in the Knoxville, Tennessee area. The cheesy new dish consists of a flaky buttermilk biscuit served warm with a melted 'grilled' layer of cheddar, mozzarella, and pepper jack cheese on top – Taco Bell's signature three-cheese blend. The dish is similar to the chain's Grilled Cheese Burrito., which is a fan favorite among cheese lovers.
The new Grilled Cheese Biscuit can be purchased on its own, or you can opt for the Grilled Cheese Biscuit with Sausage, which includes a sausage patty in the middle.
