Del Taco's Festive Hot Tamales Are Returning For The Holidays

Few can deny that tamales taste great, but finding them can sometimes prove difficult. According to Tastes Better from Scratch, these items require a cook to spread a dough called masa on corn husks, which then get filled with whatever you like. They then need to get steamed until cooked through. The elaborate cooking process takes a bit of time, and not everyone can make them at home. Luckily, Del Taco has stepped up and now has a solution for everyone who needs to curb a quick tamale craving.

Globe Newswire reported that the fast-food chain has now brought back their holiday tamales stuffed with salsa, shredded pork, and masa. For a limited time at participating locations, Tex-Mex lovers can now pick up a variety of deals all centered around the return of this staple. Diners can pick up Red & Green Smothered Tamales, featuring two tamales covered in red and green sauces, sour cream, and cilantro, or opt to grab Chili Cheese Smothered Tamales that come with two tamales loaded with beef chili, cheddar cheese, and sour cream. If those sound a bit too heavy, Del Taco has some other deals that can keep your mouth watering.
