Breakfast Tacos are a fun, customizable, and flavorful way to start your morning. Filled with scrambled eggs, cheese, meats, and fresh toppings, they’re hearty, quick to prepare, and perfect for both busy weekdays and relaxed brunches.

Ingredients

  • 8 small flour or corn tortillas
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack)
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
  • Fresh cilantro, avocado, salsa, or hot sauce for topping

Instructions

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage, or chorizo until browned. Remove and set aside, leaving a little fat in the pan.
  2. Add onions and bell peppers to the pan and sauté until softened, about 3–4 minutes. Remove from heat.
  3. Whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Melt butter in the skillet and pour in the egg mixture. Cook gently, stirring, until eggs are just set.
  4. Warm tortillas in a dry skillet for 20 seconds per side or wrap in foil and heat in the oven.
  5. Assemble tacos by filling each tortilla with scrambled eggs, meat, vegetables, and cheese. Add toppings like salsa, avocado, or cilantro.
  6. Fold and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use both flour and corn tortillas for variety.
  • For a vegetarian version, skip the meat and add mushrooms, spinach, or black beans.
  • Mix cheese directly into the eggs for creamier filling.
  • To freeze, wrap tacos individually and reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15 minutes.
  • Keep tortillas warm by wrapping them in foil or a clean kitchen towel.
