Individually-Packaged Taco Boxes Catering
Sometimes individually packaged meals are the easiest way to order lunch for your team. Individually packaged taco boxes are a great way to give your team a bevy of great flavors to choose from. The ancient Mexicans were wise to pack their tacos with lots of protein, healthy fats, and a variety of nutrient-rich ingredients. In fact, tacos are one of the most customizable food choices there is. You can make them dairy-free, gluten-free, or even meatless if you're feeling a little bit more adventurous. The taco box is a great way to take care of your needs and the needs of your whole team.

What is an Individually Packaged Taco Box?
Taco boxes are a great alternative to taco bars because they are less work for your team and they’ll still be able to customize their box with their favorite flavors. Each box can be labeled with your team member's name and includes a number of tacos and a side to ensure that there is the right amount of food for everyone!
Best Practices and Tips when Ordering Individually-Packaged Taco Boxes
Gluten-free customers can select corn tortillas rather than flour to make sure that they don’t miss out on the taco lunch fiesta! Tacos in a taco box will arrive pre-assembled but some of the wet ingredients (salsa, sour cream, guacamole etc.) may be included on the side to keep the tacos from getting soggy. While taco boxes can allow for a highly customizable meal, some restaurants will limit the number of options that can be chosen. This is to ensure that the order is easy for the restaurant to execute as well as to keep things from getting too confusing once the order is delivered!

Frequently Asked Questions
How many tacos are recommended per person?
For a lunch order, we try to make sure restaurants provide each person with 3 tacos. But if a restaurant insists on offering 2 per person, we push them to also offer additional sides. The good thing is that since it's individually-boxed, even if it's 2, you won't run into a food shortage issue.
Can I mix and match any flavors/proteins?
Some restaurants allow unlimited mix & match of the tacos (e.g. 25 people can have 25 different types of boxes, some will be chicken+steak+veg, some will be chicken+steak+pork, etc.) Some allow a limited amount of mix & match options (you can do chicken+steak+veg and chicken+steak+pork, but only up to a certain number of permutations). And some will require you to have all the same proteins (they only want to do chicken+chicken+chicken). You’ll be able to see what a restaurant is able to do when you check out.
Are all sides vegan/vegetarian?
Most sides will be suitable for vegans and vegetarians but it is important to pay attention to the (V) or (VG) designations on each item. For instance, rice and beans as a side might have been cooked in chicken stock and they might be topped with cotija cheese.
Can I make a taco gluten-free?
Corn tortillas are excellent gluten-free alternatives and they taste great, too. You can’t go wrong ordering corn tortillas over flour ones for the whole team.
