Spicy Breakfast Tacos are flavorful, protein-packed morning meals filled with scrambled eggs, spicy sausage or beans, cheese, and bold toppings. Perfect for a quick breakfast, weekend brunch, or meal prep.

Ingredients

  1. 4 large eggs
  2. 2 tbsp milk or cream (optional)
  3. Salt and pepper to taste
  4. 1/2 cup spicy breakfast sausage or 1/2 cup black beans
  5. 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
  6. 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack)
  7. 4 flour or corn tortillas
  8. 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced
  9. Hot sauce or salsa, to taste
  10. 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
  11. 1 avocado or 1/2 cup guacamole (optional)
  12. 1 lime, cut into wedges (for serving)

Instructions

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk (if using), salt, and pepper.

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and cooked through. If using beans, warm with a pinch of chili powder. Set aside.
  2. Wipe out the skillet if needed, then add olive oil or butter and scramble the eggs until just set.
  3. Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.
  4. Assemble each taco with scrambled eggs, sausage or beans, shredded cheese, and jalapeños.
  5. Add toppings like hot sauce, salsa, cilantro, and avocado or guacamole.
  6. Serve warm with lime wedges on the side.

Notes

  • Use low heat to keep scrambled eggs soft and fluffy.
  • Customize heat level with milder or spicier ingredients.
  • Store taco fillings separately and assemble fresh for best results.
  • Great for meal prep or freezer-friendly breakfast options.
  • Add roasted potatoes or refried beans for a heartier meal.
