Every year, the food innovation team at Taco Bell creates a Thanksgiving dish with a fun twist. In years past, Taco Bell releases recipes for Rolled Chicken Tacos Bisque and Fire Tortilla Chip Crusted Chicken. As Thanksgiving inches closer, Taco Bell finally released this year's dish—the Crunchy Taco Sheperd's Pie.
Since Thanksgiving celebrations are likely going to be disrupted by the ongoing pandemic this year, Taco Bell set out to make a "traditional, homey recipe" this year. Whether you're celebrating virtually or with a small group, the Crunchy Taco Sheperd's Pie is sure to have you feeling extra thankful for your favorite taco joint.
All you need from Taco Bell is two classic Crunchy Tacos and four sauce packets at your preferred spice level. For the rest of the ingredients list, you'll have to hit up your local grocery store. The Crunchy Taco Sheperd's Pie calls for a variety of delicious ingredients, including russet potatoes, cheddar cheese and more.
The recipe doesn't call for any fancy kitchen equipment, either. As long as you have the basics—baking dish, a pot with a lid, sauce pan, etc.—you can whip up your own Crunchy Taco Sheperd's Pie in no time. For the full recipe, click here.
