At La Guadalupana, we’re proud to help families spend less time in the kitchen and more time together.
El Ranchero has been a staple in kitchens for generations, known for its bold flavor, satisfying crunch, and commitment to authentic Mexican tradition.

Whether you choose our classic salted, unsalted, or flavored varieties, El Ranchero tortilla chips bring quality and flavor you can taste in every bite.
Our tostadas are crafted with the same attention to tradition and taste. Naturally gluten-free and made with just a few wholesome ingredients, they’re ideal for building hearty tostadas topped with beans, meat, and veggies—or for enjoying with soups like pozole and menudo. With their authentic texture and unmistakable flavor, El Ranchero chips and tostadas are more than just a side—they’re the foundation of a truly delicious meal.
