Positive taste and comparison to beef and green chili variants
Guilty pleasure. I could eat like 5 in a sitting - the beef and green chili ones are better. So bad for you but a tasty meal all the same

Recommended pan-fry preparation with toppings
Best way to make these is thaw em in microwave for a minute or two then pan fry. Top with lettuce, sour cream, and hot sauce 👌🏼👌🏼 And serve with beans and rice if you’re feeling fancy.
