Unfortunately for me, the price has recently gone up to $8 a serving (which usually lasts me one meal and a snack). Since I really only have $20 a month to spend on whatever I want, $8 is a lot of moola, even if the food is scrumptious.
Therefore, I tried to recreate this dish at home and was pleasantly surprised at the yum factor.
I started with a bag of steak fries ($2.50) and baked them. Then I tossed half a bag of Mexi mix cheese ($1.50), one lb of steak that we diced and cooked at home with some salt, cumin, and lemon juice ($3). After melting it all together, we added fat free sour cream (maybe a quarter?), homemade guac(50 cents), and some canned salsa from the Mexican aisle (another 75 cents worth). I added a little kosher salt to the top and dug in. It was AMAZING. And at $8.50 to feed 4 people instead of $8 to feed one (and a half) person, it was a delicious bargain.
