The chalupas is a specialty of South-Central Mexico. Traditional chalupas are made by shaping masa dough into the shape of a boat and frying it. The flat fried dough is topped only with salsa cheese and shredded lettuce. The Americanized Taco Bell chalupa supreme is much more like a fried flatbread and taco hybrid.

What is Chalupa? A chalupa is a specialty dish of south-central Mexico. Traditional chalupas are small, thick, boat-shaped fried dough topped only with Salsa, cheese, and shredded lettuce. It is made out of flour dough and a thicker kind of shell that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Taco Bell has brought back its $5 Chalupa Cravings Box, which includes a Chalupa Supreme, Crunchy Taco, Five-Layer Beef Burrito and Cinnamon Twists and a choice of Brisk Dragon Paradise Sparkling Iced tea or any fountain beverage.

Taco Bell has taken 6-month aged sharp cheddar cheese and toasted it onto the iconic chalupa shell to create a crispy blanket of flavor and texture, unlocking a whole new cheese experience. The chalupa innovation doesn't stop there, either.

Traditional chalupas, as found in Cholula, Puebla, are small, thick, boat-shaped fried masa topped only with salsa, cheese and shredded lettuce. Other regions in Mexico add variations, which can include chorizo, pork, shredded chicken, or refried beans, in addition to the classic cheese, salsa, and lettuce toppings.

Chalupa is a Spanish word for "boat," which refers to its boat-like shape. When traditionally prepared in Mexico, chalupas are often made of masa dough and molded into a slight cup shape, then deep fried, hence the boat naming.

Popular chalupa fillings include shredded chicken or pork, chorizo, ground beef, refried beans, and eggs. Shredded lettuce, cheese, chopped raw onion, and salsa are common garnishes for this fried appetizer, and you can also add tomatoes, sour cream, and cheddar cheese.

A chalupa is a thick, fried shell filled with all your favorite taco fillings like taco meat or shredded chicken along with shredded lettuce, shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, and sour cream. The shell is made with flour and while it's fried, it's still slightly fluffy and super delicious.
