Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 strips Low-sodium bacon
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Skim milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 pieces Whole wheat tortillas
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 medium Lime
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 medium Roma tomato
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the low-sodium bacon strips and cook until they are crisp, about 7-8 minutes. Once cooked, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, skim milk, and black pepper until well combined.
In the same skillet, add the olive oil and reduce the heat to low. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until the eggs are just set but still slightly runny, roughly 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
While the eggs are cooking, warm the whole wheat tortillas, one at a time, on a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash with a fork and add the juice of the lime, mixing until combined.
Dice the Roma tomato and roughly chop the fresh cilantro leaves.
To assemble the tacos, spread a layer of mashed avocado onto each warmed tortilla. Crumble a strip of bacon on top then add a spoonful of scrambled eggs. Top with a few pieces of diced tomato and a sprinkle of cilantro.
Serve the tacos warm and enjoy the fresh, low-sodium flavors!
