Ordering pizza from taco bell is like ordering fries at a sushi place. You deserve whatever you get.

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.ml -1 points 11 months ago

Okay but no joke some of the best fries in my area are from teriyaki places. They know how to fry food well and the fries aren't ordered enough to be hot held so they're always cooked on ordering

$6 for this garbage. Taco Bell used to be a decent guilty pleasure but it's become expensive trash now.

On a road trip I stopped at a Taco Bell for bean burritos for something easy to eat. Two bean burritos for $8. They used to be less than a $1 each.

Nah, it was always trash. Just inexpensive. Now it's just expensive trash.

Back in the 90s before the meat fillers, it was different. I used to dine there quite a bit. Modern variations pale in comparison.

I still can't replicate a chalupa well enough. Homemade quesaritos don't entirely scratch the itch, but they're pretty good.

But they aren't cheap any more.

Chicken chalupa supremes. But man, it's still a crap shoot on if the shells are gonna be warm and toasty, or cold and chewy. I've yet found a Taco Bell that is consistent.

God I used to love those 20 years ago. Course they didn't look like that back then.

I make these at home now because taco bell Canada removed them from the menu.

I can make four 12" Mexican pizzas, twice as thick, not risk getting e-coli/listeria, for about $5 CAD.

Warm oven.

Lightly fry tortillas in pan for about 15 -30 seconds (score them so they don't poof up)

Open refried beans. (Add taco seasoning if you want [you can make that super cheap, too!])

Grate cheese.

Mince some onion.

Pick a few cherry tomatoes, jalapeño, cut cilantro, chives and green onion from plants.

Blend a few of the above with some vinegar, sugar, salt and lemon juice. Heat in pan or pot for a bit. A zingy salsa /sauce.

Put things on tortilla.

Put another tortilla on top.

Sauce it and cheese it and garnish it.

Put in oven.

Take out of oven.

Put in mouth.

Enjoy.

**addendum

I haven't made them in a while and I don't normally take pics of my food so this is old and blurry

Is this before or after you ate it?

[–] ArtVandelay@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

It sure is!

I legitimately love the Mexican pizza. Yes, sometimes it do be looking like that. But sometimes, it's beautiful and perfectly cut without cracking.
