Each pocket is filled with vibrant salsa, tangy sour cream, and savory chicken with plenty of melty cheese and zesty taco seasoning for added punch! Even the crust itself is something to write home about, as the fluffy, golden brown crescent roll adds a touch of welcome butteriness. In less than half an hour, Taco Pockets dazzle your tastebuds with every bite. With a taste like this, who needs taco shells?
