Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 medium flour tortillas
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
- 1 large avocado
- 0.5 cup salsa
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
Instructions
Place the bacon slices in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook until crispy, about 4-6 minutes per side. Remove the bacon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
While the bacon is cooking, crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
In the same skillet, remove excess bacon grease, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil and reheat the skillet over medium-low heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Stir constantly with a spatula, ensuring that the eggs do not stick, until they form soft curds, approximately 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Warm the tortillas in a clean skillet over low heat or directly over a gas flame for about 15 seconds on each side until pliable.
To assemble the tacos, place equal amounts of scrambled eggs in the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and top with two slices of bacon per taco.
Add slices of avocado and a spoonful of salsa to each taco. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
Serve immediately while warm. Enjoy your bacon egg tacos for breakfast or any meal of the day!
