McKenna (@mckennaiseating) shared the Taco Bell dupe recipe in a TikTok video.
To start, she cooked a flour tortilla, added cheddar cheese and heated it until the cheese was well melted.
She then took her choice of tostadas and broke them in half with her hands.
“You can use a regular crispy taco shell, whatever you want, but something crunchy,” she said.
“This is what I do, I put it on the two halves.”
For the protein, she added a layer of taco meat and spread it over half the shell halves and the tortilla.
The secret ingredient was her homemade sauce, which she called “Mommy’s Special Sauce.”
“It’s mayo, sour cream, garlic powder, chili powder, salt and the secret ingredient is jalapeno juice from pickled jalapenos,” she revealed.
She threw a healthy portion of sauce on the other half of the meatless tortilla.
Finally, she topped her tortilla with freshly grated cheddar and for those who had lettuce on hand, she recommended finishing with the greens.
“Shut her up and just like that, a homemade Cheesy Gordita Crunch,” she said.
“This is a great way to have a cheap Cheesy Gordita Crunch because they cost like $6. Who pays $6 for a fast food taco?”
People thanked her for the budget-friendly food inspiration.
“Amazing, can’t wait to make a pile of these,” said one viewer.
“Ayo never thought of this, thanks girl!” said another.
