Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 6 small flour or corn tortillas
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese
- 1/2 cup cooked breakfast sausage or bacon, crumbled
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 avocado, diced
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Hot sauce or salsa for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
- Cook the Eggs: Heat the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are just set and scrambled, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Warm the Tortillas: While the eggs are cooking, warm the tortillas either in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds per side or in the microwave wrapped in a damp paper towel for 20 seconds.
- Assemble the Tacos: Divide the scrambled eggs evenly among the warm tortillas. Top each with shredded cheese, cooked sausage or bacon, diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, and diced avocado.
- Serve: Serve the breakfast tacos immediately with hot sauce or salsa on the side if desired for added flavor and heat.
Notes
- Customize your tacos by adding sautéed bell peppers, onions, or black beans for extra flavor and nutrition.
- For a vegetarian or dairy-free version, use plant-based sausage and dairy-free cheese alternatives.
- These tacos are meal prep friendly—keep egg, toppings, and tortillas separate until ready to reheat and assemble to maintain freshness.
