Taco Shells Nutritional Info

Think outside the shell with our crunchy corn taco shells!

Don’t just limit yourself to Taco Tuesdays when a whole culinary world awaits. Gently break into pieces and use as a base for nachos or crumble for a crispy salad topping.

Bring fresh flavors to your brunch routine with easy chilaquiles. Whisk together eggs, taco shells (broken into medium pieces), and our diced green chiles. Allow mixture to soak for a few minutes and scramble as usual. Top with your favorite salsa, cheese, and lime juice.
