Copycat Taco Bell Chalupa Supreme tastes just like the one at the restaurant if not better! Made with high quality ingredients, this chalupa is hard to beat.
I’m a big supporter of Taco Bell. It is my go-to place to eat if we are out and about. It is delicious and the most affordable. There are times where I crave a chalupa, but I know I won’t be going to town for several days. I figured it was time to try and make these bad boys and home. I can confirm that these are just as tasty and much more affordable!
I found the chalupa shells at Walmart. I’m thinking they are a newer product because I don’t recall ever seeing them before. They are very good! There are a few different ways to prepare them. You can actually fry them in a pan with some oil, bake them in the oven, or air fry them. I love my air fryer and the way it cooks things and I found that is the easiest and least messy way to cook them.
Try these for Taco Tuesday and top them with your favorite sauce. Are you a mild, hot, fire or diablo fan? Let me know in the comments!
