“Chicken Bacon Ranch is a flavor that people instantly recognize and love,” said Liz Matthews, global chief food innovation ​officer for Taco Bell, in a news release. "By pairing it with our Street Chalupas – a form that earns more and more fans with each passing iteration – we’re giving this iconic combo a new platform ⁠to shine in a way that’s unmistakably Taco Bell.”

Taco Bell regularly offers new takes on the Chalupa, which originally ⁠debuted in 1999. Cheesy Street Chalupas – made with slow-roasted chicken or grilled, marinated steak, topped with ​onions and cilantro in a warm shell stuffed with melted mozzarella and pepper jack cheese – hit the menu nationwide in summer 2024. The national ⁠rollout came after Taco Bell tested ​them in Indianapolis in October ⁠2023.

Taco Bell also served up a Toasted Cheddar Street Chalupa last year before returning Cheesy Street Chalupas to the menu in August 2025.
