Scrambled eggs, cheese, and salsa in soft tortillas.
Breakfast Tacos:
Who says tacos are just for lunch or dinner? Breakfast Tacos are a quick, customizable, and protein-packed way to start your day! They bring together fluffy scrambled eggs, melted cheese, and fresh toppings inside warm soft tortillas for a delicious handheld breakfast.
Ingredients:
- 4 small soft tortillas (flour or corn)
- 4 eggs
- ¼ cup milk (optional, for fluffier eggs)
- ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your choice)
- ½ cup salsa (mild, medium, or spicy)
- ½ cup black beans (optional)
- ½ avocado, sliced (optional)
- 1 tbsp butter or oil
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- Fresh cilantro, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Scramble the eggs – In a bowl, whisk the eggs with milk, salt, and pepper. Heat butter or oil in a pan over medium heat. Pour in the eggs and cook, stirring gently until fluffy and fully set.
- Warm the tortillas – Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side or until warm and slightly golden.
- Assemble the tacos – Divide the scrambled eggs evenly among the tortillas. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top while the eggs are still warm.
- Add toppings – Spoon salsa over the eggs, and add black beans, avocado slices, and cilantro if desired.
- Serve immediately – Enjoy warm with extra salsa or hot sauce on the side!
Tips for Perfect Breakfast Tacos:
- Use fresh, warm tortillas – Lightly heating the tortillas in a skillet makes them soft and pliable, preventing breakage.
- Make the eggs extra fluffy – Adding a splash of milk and cooking them on low heat while stirring gently ensures soft, creamy eggs.
- Customize your toppings – Try adding crisp bacon, sautéed peppers, pico de gallo, or hot sauce for extra flavor.
- Prep ahead for busy mornings – Scramble the eggs and chop toppings the night before for a quick grab-and-go breakfast.
- Pair with a refreshing drink – Enjoy these tacos with fresh orange juice, a smoothie, or a hot cup of coffee.
Enjoy your meal!
