How to Order Vegan at Taco Bell

When youā€™re craving a quick, satisfying vegan meal, Taco Bell comes in clutch with a customizable menu full of animal-friendly offerings. šŸŒ®šŸ˜‹ PETA has been urging fast-food chains to offer more vegan options for decades, which has led Taco Bell to test many exciting new vegan menu items. Until the Vegan Crunchwrap, Beyond Carne Asada Steak, and meatless Naked Chicken Chalupa are on menus nationwide, hereā€™s how to order some of the chainā€™s signature items vegan.

Black Bean Crunchwrap Supreme (or Double Decker Taco)

Hereā€™s a trick to remember for a ton of Taco Bell menu items: Order them ā€œfresco styleā€ so they come without dairy and mayo sauces but with tomatoes. šŸ‘ŒšŸ‘Œ Thatā€™s all it takes to enjoy the famous Crunchwrap Supreme without harming animals. šŸ˜² (But keep in mind that ā€œfresco styleā€ also means guac will be left off.)

Cheesy Fiesta Potatoes

These potatoesā€”minus the cheesy partā€”are a great side dish or snack. Replace the cheese dip with guac so you donā€™t support an industry that tears cows away from their fams, steals their milk, and kills them when theyā€™re no longer seen as profitable. šŸ˜¢šŸ®

Cinnamon Twists

Ready for the easiest step on our list? Order Taco Bellā€™s Cinnamon Twists as isā€”theyā€™re already vegan! šŸ˜…

Black Bean Chalupa Supreme

Beans play a starring role in a lot of these vegan options, and weā€™re not complaining. šŸ˜ Black beans are bussinā€™ and have the protein and antioxidants you need to keep you strong and help you combat diseases. šŸ’Ŗ Make sure your Chalupa Supreme is ā€œfresco styleā€ or otherwise free of dairy.

Bean Burrito or Black Bean Burrito

The bean burrito doesnā€™t have a dairy-based sauce, so just order yours without cheese. šŸ‘ For a fuller meal, you can add potatoes, rice, and guac to your burrito.

Fiesta Veggie Burrito

The rice, beans, and fiesta strips in the Fiesta Veggie Burrito are all vegan. šŸ˜ Get the nasty nonvegan stuff out of there by making it ā€œfresco styleā€ and enjoy the fiesta of flavors in your mouth. šŸŽ‰

Crunchy or Soft Tacos

Are you team crunchy or soft taco? šŸ¤· Either way, you can order a vegan version by asking for beans instead of beef and saying the magic words ā€œfresco style.ā€ šŸ§™

Spicy Potato Soft Taco

Hereā€™s another great potato-based item that just needs a little tweaking to be vegan. šŸ„”šŸŒ± Say ā€œso longā€ to dairy and eggs by ordering it ā€œfresco style,ā€ and dig into your warm, spicy soft taco.

Power Menu Bowlā€”Veggie

Hereā€™s how powerful this veggie bowl is: Leave off cheese, sour cream, and avocado ranch sauce (to help cows enjoy their lives) and youā€™re still left with seasoned rice, black beans, lettuce, tomatoes, and guac. šŸ¤Æ Plus you can add potatoes and red sauce? Game over.

Veggie Mexican Pizza

Yup, Taco Bell has pizza. šŸ˜ The Veggie Mexican Pizza is almost vegan as it isā€”all you need to do is get it without cheese. (You could bring it home and microwave it with some vegan cheese on top.)

So many fast-food chain restaurants are making the right moral and financial decisions by adding more vegan menu options. šŸ™Œ Check out our article on Dunkinā€™ to see what vegan food and drinks you can get at locations nationwide.
