Taco Bell’s Mexican Pizza is proof that when people band together (including a few outcries on social media), any food item can return even when it’s promised to be taken away for good.

This year, Taco Bell is welcoming back the Mexican Pizza with open arms and our mouths are wide open!

So far we know that the Mexican Pizza will graciously make its return in a few months due to the outpouring of hearts that were not so silently broken; what we didn’t know was when that day would officially come, except now we do.

The scrumptious layered pizza stuffed with refried beans and beef, topped with a melted three cheese blend, pizza sauce, and chopped tomatoes will finally be in the hands of Taco Bell enthusiasts once again; just make sure to lick the cheese off your fingers when you’re finished.

Thanks to Taco Bell, the return date of the Mexican Pizza is finally, no longer a mystery!

When Is Taco Bell’s Mexican Pizza Returning?

According to the Bell, the historic return of the beloved meal will be added to menus once again on May 19, and you can even get it for free thanks to Taco Bell’s IOU for rewards members only who received a mystery reward on the app during the Big Game back when!

Including a vegetarian version for those who choose to opt out of beef, if you’re craving more than just the Mexican Pizza you can now select a combo that features two Crunchy Tacos, a large fountain drink and of course, the Mexican Pizza for a suggested price of $8.99.

However, if you simply can’t wait for May 19, how does May 17 sound?

That’s right, Taco Bell loyalty members can snag the pizza two days early; not to mention if you’re also a DashPass member, fans can enjoy $2 off one Mexican Pizza with a minimum subtotal of $12 with the promo code “MEXPIZZA” before checkout!

For those who crave the Mexican Pizza without having to leave their couch, Taco Bell plans to release its pizza through DoorDash starting May 19 until the 26.

After May 26, the Mexican Pizza will be made available on other delivery platforms beginning on May 27 of this year!

So while we wait for May’s flowers, Taco Bell’s Mexican Pizza will soon be stocked once again when we all notice the tulips sprouting and the birds chirping.

Expect drive thru-lines a mile long for the crispy pizza and remember, the early bird always gets the worm!

It’s officially Easter weekend and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate than enjoying the great outdoors to welcome Spring.

Whether you choose to sleep in a blowup tent or glamp in an old fashioned RV while enjoying the great outdoors, there’s one thing other than bug spray that every camping enthusiast should bring on their solo or family vacation.

Introducing the latest invention since the hammock chair, the swinging, flying saucer outdoor hammock!

Once you get the past name, this outdoor hammock provides ultimate relaxation as soon as you’re done setting up camp.

To sit in rather than on, you’ll notice the soft and inflatable cushion beneath your bum as soon as sit down.

Made of oxford cloth that’s breathable during the dog days of summer, not to mention comfortable against your skin, everyone will be fighting for a turn in this hammock.

With surrounding material that encloses all around you as you sit, the flying saucer, hammock-like chair is easy to hop in and out when it’s time to take that hike or cook burgers on the grill.

Just don’t blame us if you find yourself catching a few z’s as soon as you get inside.

With an inspired design of a flying UFO but with the comfort of a hammock and a cushion on the bottom for support, throw in a few pillows or maybe a blanket or two while you enjoy what Mother Nature has to offer.

Similar to hammocks that are made to swing and harnessed between two trees, this outdoor camping must-have only needs one tree to secure it’s place.

Hang from the trees or the backyard patio for a night of camping in the backyard, you can find the flying saucer, outdoor hammock online at Walmart!

If you were one of the lucky ones to try Taco Bell’s spicy spinoff of their infamous Nacho Fries, it looks like you and everyone else really liked the taste! 

With the approval of the people, Taco Bell eaters have spoken considering the fast food chain is finally saying ‘yes’ to the nationwide release of their newest Nacho Fries!

Since Taco Bell likes to pay close attention to detail when it comes to the creativity of their meals, their latest creation piles high on the sides and kicks up the spice a few notches. 

Nacho fries slathered in nacho cheese sauce and dumped with beef or steak on top, tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, and a coating of spicy ranch sauce to finish.

Now this wrapped up meal will certainly test the level of heat you can take with your food. 

Keep in mind that if you thought Taco Bell was bluffing about their so-called spicy sauce, well we’re here to tell you that the creamy dip features a mixture of buttermilk ranch combined with ghost chili peppers that might just make you sweat slightly on your forehead.

Is it getting hot in here?

Currently available nationwide, it’s up to you whether or not you want to try and see if you can take the heat; if you think you can, Taco Bell lets you wrap the spicy fries combo in a burrito, that’s if you need another starch to cool off your tongue of course.

Our recommendation?

Order the large Baja Blast.

If you’re looking for a flower that grows well with your not-so green thumb, sunflowers are the plant you want to pot considering these types of flowers bloom with very little attention.

Rather than the typical yellow sunflower, think orange!

Enter: The Mexican Torch Sunflower.

The sizzling orange sunflower with bright orange petals that might just outshine the sun, a genuine heat lover, and the attitude of a cat, this flower likes to be left alone at times.

A plant made for the 9-5.

In fact, it even tolerates infertile soil and drought alongside its low maintenance charm.

Decorated with a yellow to orangish colored middle, this type of sunflower is no stranger to bees and especially butterflies, all while sitting pretty in the backyard.

With petals that can grow as long as 3 inches, expect this plant to tower over the others in height.

Simply plant in the backyard or decorate alongside the driveway and watch the neighbors across the street glance in awe.

You can find the seeds for this striking, orange colored sunflower online thanks to Etsy shop owner @ZellajakeFarmGarden, for less than five dollars to plant this summer season; green thumb who?
