Quick answer: The Taco Bell vegetarian menu is certified by the American Vegetarian Association (AVA) and includes about 20 items, from the $1.39 Cheesy Roll Up and $1.99 Bean Burrito to the $5.99 Black Bean Crunchwrap Supreme and $7.99 Veggie Bowl. For vegan Taco Bell, order bean-based items and remove cheese, sour cream and creamy sauces.
Taco Bell is one of the easier fast-food chains for meat-free eating, because many items can swap beef or chicken for beans. This guide covers the full Taco Bell vegetarian menu with prices and calories as of October 2026, based on Taco Bell's U.S. online menu.
It also explains what AVA certification means, how to order vegan, which swaps save money, and what to know about shared fryers before you order.

What does AVA-certified vegetarian mean at Taco Bell?
Taco Bell's vegetarian menu is certified by the American Vegetarian Association (AVA). Certified items are lacto-ovo vegetarian, which means they contain no meat but may contain dairy and eggs.
That certification covers the ingredients, not the kitchen. Taco Bell restaurants prepare vegetarian and meat items in a shared kitchen, and the same frying oil may be used for meat items, so cross-contact can occur. Strict vegetarians and vegans should factor that in.
Vegetarian swaps: same favorites, lower prices
Most of Taco Bell's signature items have a black bean or veggie version, and as of October 2026 the vegetarian version is the same price or cheaper in every pair below:
| Meat item | Price / cal | Vegetarian version | Price / cal |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crunchwrap Supreme | $6.99 / 530 | Black Bean Crunchwrap Supreme | $5.99 / 520 |
| Chalupa Supreme | $5.79 / 350 | Black Bean Chalupa Supreme | $5.39 / 340 |
| Grilled Cheese Burrito | $5.89 / 690 | Black Bean Grilled Cheese Burrito | $5.39 / 680 |
| Mexican Pizza | $5.89 / 530 | Veggie Mexican Pizza | $5.89 / 460 |
| Chicken Quesadilla | $5.99 / 490 | Cheese Quesadilla | $5.69 / 440 |
| Cantina Chicken Bowl | $8.59 / 630 | Veggie Bowl | $7.99 / 510 |
The Black Bean Crunchwrap Supreme saves the most at $1.00 less than the beef version. The Veggie Mexican Pizza costs the same as the original but has 70 fewer calories. Compare the meat versions on our Crunchwrap, Chalupa and Mexican Pizza menu and the Cantina Chicken and bowls menu.
How to swap the protein on any item
You aren't limited to the items above. In the Taco Bell app, kiosk or at the counter, you can replace seasoned beef or chicken with:
- Refried beans (Taco Bell describes its refried beans as vegan)
- Black beans
- Potatoes
A Crunchy Taco ($1.99) or Beefy 5-Layer Burrito ($4.29) with beans instead of beef is a simple way to turn a classic into a vegetarian order. Swap charges, if any, vary by store. The Taco Bell burritos menu lists every base burrito you can customize.
Vegan Taco Bell: ordering without dairy
Taco Bell's certified menu is vegetarian rather than vegan, but with a few changes you can build vegan Taco Bell orders by choosing bean-based items and removing the dairy.
How to order vegan at Taco Bell
- Start with a bean-based item, or swap the meat for refried beans, black beans or potatoes.
- Remove dairy: cheese and the three-cheese blend, reduced-fat sour cream, nacho cheese sauce and creamy sauces such as Creamy Jalapeño, Avocado Ranch, Spicy Ranch, Chipotle and Creamy Sriracha.
- Keep or add plant-based fillings: beans, rice, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, guacamole, red sauce and the free sauce packets.
- Check the latest ingredient list for each item, because recipes change.
Vegan Taco Bell order ideas
These Taco Bell vegan options start from regular menu items; the price shown is the base item before any changes.
- Bean Burrito, no cheese: starts at $1.99.
- Crunchy Taco with black beans instead of beef, no cheese: starts at $1.99.
- Black Bean Crunchwrap Supreme with no nacho cheese or sour cream: starts at $5.99; add potatoes or guacamole for more filling.
- Veggie Bowl with no cheese, sour cream or creamy sauce: starts at $7.99.
- Black Beans and Rice: a $2.99 side with 160 calories.
- Chips and Guacamole: $3.79 and 230 calories; keep the shared-fryer caveat in mind.
Add-ons such as guacamole ($1.39) cost extra. For the full list of sides and sauces, see Taco Bell sides, sweets and sauces.
Nacho Fries on a vegan diet: what to know
Not as served, and the fries themselves come with caveats. Nacho Fries are paired with nacho cheese sauce, which contains dairy, so you'd need to skip the dip. Nacho Fries also aren't tagged vegetarian in our menu data.
Whether the fries alone fit a vegan diet depends on the current seasoning recipe and on the shared fryer, since Taco Bell may use the same oil for meat items. Because ingredients can change, check the official ingredient list on tacobell.com before ordering, and don't assume they are vegan.
Getting enough protein on a vegetarian order
Beans are the main protein source on a meat-free Taco Bell order, so build around them:
- Ask for extra beans on burritos and bowls (extra fillings may cost more).
- Add a side of Black Beans ($2.59, 50 calories) or Black Beans and Rice ($2.99, 160 calories).
- Choose Pintos N Cheese ($2.99, 170 calories) if you eat dairy.
- Pick the Black Bean Crunchwrap Supreme (520 calories) or Veggie Bowl (510 calories) as a filling main.

Allergens and cross-contact
Vegetarian doesn't mean allergen-free. Many items contain milk, egg, wheat or soy, and everything is prepared in shared kitchens. If you have allergies or celiac disease, read our Taco Bell gluten-free and allergen guide and speak to staff before ordering.
