McKenna (@mckennaiseating) shared the Taco Bell dupe recipe in a TikTok video.

To start, she cooked a flour tortilla, added cheddar cheese on top, and heated it until the cheese was properly melted.

Next, taking her choice of tostadas and broke it in half with her hands.

“You can use a regular crunchy taco shell, whatever you’d like, but something crunchy,” she said.

“This is what I do, I lay it on the two halves.”

For protein, she added a layer of taco meat, spreading it out over one-half of the shell halves and tortilla.

The secret ingredient was her homemade sauce, which she dubbed “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.

On the other half of the tortilla with no meat, she dumped a healthy helping of the sauce.

Finally, she topped off her tortilla with freshly grated cheddar and for those with lettuce on hand, she recommended finishing off with the greens.

“Close her up and just like that, homemade Cheesy Gordita Crunch,” she said.

“This is a great way to have a budget Cheesy Gordita Crunch because they’re like $6. Who the freak is paying $6 for a fast food taco?”

People thanked her for the budget-friendly food inspiration.
