Who is down to try the new BEYOND TACOS AND BURITOS AT DEL TACO?!
Disclosure: I visited Del Taco as a media guest. No worries though because all opinions are my own. Just keepin` it real, always!
Last week I had the pleasure of meeting Anne Albertine, the current Del Taco’s Executive Chef! She apparently used to work at Taco Bell as the Culinary Innovation Manager as well, so it was such a cool experience getting to hear her talk about her career. Del Taco’s collaboration with the Beyond Meat is amazing, because it provides more options for people who want to reduce their red meat intake and people who are vegetarian or vegan! And at a fast food place! Who said you can’t eat better at a fast food place?
Dang, don't these tacos look so damn good?!
But what exactly are in these tacos? Definitely not meat!

What are in their Beyond Burritos!?
Beyond 8 Layer Burrito: (about $4.49 *price and participation may vary)
Del Taco’s seasoned Beyond Meat plant-based crumbles layered with slow-cooked beans, tangy guacamole, fresh diced tomatoes, crisp lettuce, hand-grated cheddar cheese, zesty red sauce and cool sour cream, in a warm flour tortilla.
Epic Beyond Cali Burrito: (about $6.49 *price and participation may vary)
Del Taco’s seasoned Beyond Meat plant-based crumbles combined with its world famous Crinkle-Cut Fries, cool sour cream, tangy guacamole and handmade pico de gallo salsa in a warm, oversized flour tortilla.
I got to try their tacos:
The Beyond Taco and Beyond Avocado Taco.
I personally enjoyed both!
But I prefer the Beyond Taco more because I love LOVE cheese (and they use real cheese! Could totally taste the diff) and there is a looooot of cheese. So the Beyond Taco is the vegetarian version.
The Vegan version is the Beyond Avocado Taco just because it has absolutely nothing made from animals! All plant based! The avocado is honestly a great substitute for the cheese, because who doesn’t love avocados? And it still adds that creamy buttery flavor to it. To be honest, when I was eating both of these tacos, I forgot that I wasn’t eating meat!
Now onto the BURRITOS!
These are heavy and loaded! I got to try the two new Beyond Burritos. Both of them are great but I prefer the 8 Layer Burrito because I love cheese and sour cream!
Both will get you full and satisfied! And shock you that it isn’t actually real meat! But all PLANT-BASED PROTEIN! Whaaat?! No excuses for not trying, because it’ll still actually taste good!
