Flamin’ Hot Grilled Cheese Burrito Is Making A Welcome Return
The Flamin’ Hot Grilled Cheese Burrito has returned and it hasn’t forgotten what made it appealing in the first place.
Inside the warm flour tortilla is a filling of seasoned beef, nacho cheese sauce, reduced-fat sour cream, and spicy rice seasoned with Fritos Flamin’ Hot. Taco Bell also adds Creamy Chipotle sauce, crunchy Flamin’ Hot corn chips, and a three-cheese blend.
But the outside deserves some attention too. The tortilla gets covered with melted cheese and grilled until the cheese sticks to the surface. It’s the finishing touch that gives this burrito its grilled cheese look and makes it different from an ordinary beef burrito.
At $5.49, the burrito is back at the same advertised starting price as its previous run.
You can wash down the Flamin’ Hot Grilled Cheese Burrito with Mountain Dew Baja Blast or Strawberry Dream Refresca.
New Flamin’ Hot Mini Taco Salad
The returning burrito isn’t coming back alone. Taco Bell is also adding a new Flamin’ Hot Mini Taco Salad and it sounds like a pretty tempting little treat.
First teased at this year’s Live Más LIVE event, the new salad takes several familiar Taco Bell ingredients and serves them in a crispy flour tortilla bowl.
The filling includes seasoned beef, spicy rice seasoned with Fritos Flamin’ Hot, refried beans, lettuce, diced tomatoes, and Creamy Chipotle sauce. There’s also a generous helping of crunchy Flamin’ Hot corn chips, finished with a sprinkle of cheddar cheese. So, there’s plenty happening inside that little tortilla bowl.
At $2.49, the Mini Taco Salad is considerably cheaper than the returning burrito.
