Savor the ultimate Whole30 breakfast experience with these Bacon Egg Tacos—simple, nutritious, and bursting with flavor! This recipe swaps traditional tortillas for crisp romaine lettuce leaves, creating a gluten-free, low-carb base perfect for a clean-eating lifestyle. Sugar-free bacon and creamy scrambled eggs form the hearty core, while fresh avocado slices, juicy cherry tomatoes, green onions, and cilantro add layers of vibrant flavor and texture. A drizzle of lime juice ties everything together, making each bite tangy and refreshing. Quick to prepare and packed with protein and healthy fats, these tacos are an ideal way to kickstart your day, all while staying true to your Whole30 goals!
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sugar-free bacon slices and cook until crispy, about 4–5 minutes per side. Remove the bacon and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat.
While the bacon cooks, prepare the vegetables: halve the avocado, remove the pit, and slice it lengthwise. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half. Thinly slice the green onions. Roughly chop the fresh cilantro.
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them with the salt and black pepper until combined.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low, and add the coconut oil. Once the oil is melted and hot, pour in the eggs. Stir gently and continually with a spatula to scramble the eggs, cooking them until they're just set but still soft, about 3–4 minutes.
To assemble the tacos, start with a large romaine lettuce leaf. Layer with slices of avocado, followed by a strip of bacon, and a generous scoop of scrambled eggs.
Top each taco with cherry tomato halves, sliced green onions, and chopped cilantro. Squeeze a little lime juice over each taco to brighten the flavors.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Whole30 Bacon Egg Tacos!
