Spicy Food News: Taco Bell Adds Cantina Chicken Mexican Pizza, Brings Back Shredded Beef Dipping Taco
Taco Bell Continues with Its Ever-Changing Menu
The Bell keeps introducing new items and bringing back fan-favorites–for a limited time–and it has several more that it has just added to the lineup. Their beloved Mexican pizza gets a poultry twist as they team that one up with their Cantina Chicken for the aptly named Cantina Chicken Mexican Pizza, and they are pairing that with their new Jalapeño Citrus Salsa. Here is the rundown of those from the press release:
The Cantina Chicken Mexican Pizza channels that energy with a new flavor-packed spin. It layers slow-roasted Cantina Chicken, black beans, green chile sauce and a three-cheese blend between the crispy tortilla shells fans know and love, then finished with shredded purple cabbage and pico de gallo for a vibrant new take on the OG that’s already earned its legend status.
Jalapeño Citrus Salsa is the latest sauce packet creation made with bright citrus, real red jalapeños and guajillo chiles that delivers a sweet and spicy flavor profile. Both the all-new limited time Jalapeño Citrus Salsa and Avocado Verde Salsa packets are included with every Cantina Chicken menu item (one of each), including the new Cantina Chicken Mexican Pizza

But The Bell is not stopping there as they are bringing back the birria-inspired Shredded Beef Dipping taco, last seen in stores in 2023. In addition, they are introducing Shredded Beef Nacho Fries. Here is what the press release has to say about those two:
The Shredded Beef Dipping Taco layers premium, slow-braised shredded beef with a three-cheese blend and creamy jalapeño sauce, all wrapped in a white corn tortilla with a grilled cheese crust. Served with a rich, zesty red sauce on the side, it delivers the ultimate dipping experience – combining bold, melty and crispy textures in every bite, inspired by the signature beefy flavors of birria, in a way only Taco Bell can.
The all-new Shredded Beef Nacho Fries take the same premium, slow-braised shredded beef, and heaps it onto Taco Bell’s legendary Nacho Fries paired with pico de gallo, three-cheese blend, warm nacho cheese sauce and creamy jalapeño sauce. It’s a loaded, saucy, forkful-ready take on the same craveable flavor, built for dipping, stacking, and going back in for more.
All of these are limited-time items, and at Taco Bell, sometimes that can be very limited. But don’t fret, there will be menu additions on the way–likely spinning existing ingredients into something “new”–coming shortly after these.
