New Double Loaded Queso Tamale Bowl

Double Loaded Queso Tamale Bowl El Pollo Loco

This Holiday Favorites Bowl from El Pollo Loco was pretty good, but I was kind of upset. first of all It’s called Double Loaded Queso Tamale Bowl and guess what it only had 1 tamale inside. I mean, why is it called double for? Doesn’t make sense, I was expecting to get 2 tamales inside the bowl. Also, the cheese on top of my bowl is yellow and in the picture the cheese is white, this also doesn’t make sense. And, the bowl was extremely small, I was really hungry after I finished eating it. If you want to get full you may want to order two of this plates. However, I think if the plate was about 35 to 50% bigger, then it would satisfy a tummy.

I’m giving this meal 3 out of 5 Stars because

  1. fact that its 1 tamale, when its titled Double.
  2. the cheese and portion was small.

If you want to get full then this meal isn’t for you, well I’m speaking for me which I’m 200 pounds. So, if your like 150 pounds it might be different for you. But I really loved the taste and flavor, absolutely delicious and goes great with the Chips and Guacamole, sold separate. If you plan on getting this I would suggest to get other side items as well.

Chips & Guacamole

El Pollo Loco Chips & guacamole

this Chips & Guacamole from El Pollo Loco is beyond good, one of my favorites. They just know how to make their guacamole in perfection. It has the correct texture for guacamole and I always order this with every meal I’m ordering. If you haven’t tried it, give this a try you will love it.

10PC Holiday Familia Dinner

This 10pc Chicken Holiday Familia Dinner comes with 2 sides and choice of flour tortillas or chips. Every time I order this meal I always get it with flour tortillas and I also add Chips and Guacamole with the order. The pumpkin pie is from Target and it was my dessert for this meal. For the 2 sides I got Rice and Beans and that is my usual for the 2 sides. Mixing the rice and beans with the chicken and flour is very amazing, and I absolutely love this meal and give it 5 out of 5 Stars. The chicken I love the way its cooked to perfection, I love seeing burned spots on the chicken.

This 10pc Chicken meal come with the legs and thighs, I’m not sure how the El Pollo Loco chickens are raised. But, if I see that they are poorly raised then This will limit my time getting food from The restaurant. I don’t like to see chickens who are suffered in the farm and I don’t like to purchase from companies that neglect the care of the chickens. Hopefully, El Pollo Loco raises the chickens lovely because I love their food.

Double Chicken Tostada Salad

This Double Chicken Tostada Salad from El Pollo Loco comes with a Creamy Cilantro Dressing. I love this dressing and this tostada salad. If I’m ever craving a tostada salad, this is my grab n go salad that I usually get. The ingredients are:

  • Fried Tostada Shell
  • Pinto Beans
  • Shredded Monterey Jack Cheese
  • Pico de Gallo Salsa
  • Avocado Slices
  • Rice
  • Shredded Lettuce
  • Chopped Chicken Breast
  • Sour Cream
  • Creamy Cilantro Dressing

If I were going to make any changes to this Salad would be to add more rice and beans. Also, I would suggest to make the dressing 25% bigger and that is all. If you haven’t tried this Tostada, I recommend it, Give it a try it is Super Yummy. 🙂 A clean 5 out of 5 Stars.
