Equipment
- Skillet
- Bowl
- Spatula
Ingredients
- 8 small corn tortillas
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup cooked turkey bacon chopped
- 1 ripe avocado diced
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
- Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
- Begin by chopping the turkey bacon into bite-sized pieces. Dice the avocado, tomatoes, and red onion and set them aside. Crack the eggs into a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and whisk until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy.
Step 2: Cook the Turkey Bacon
- Heat a small amount of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped turkey bacon and cook until crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Once cooked, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 3: Scramble the Eggs
- In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if needed. Pour in the whisked eggs and cook gently over medium-low heat, stirring frequently with a spatula. Scramble the eggs until they’re just set but still moist and fluffy. Remove from heat.
Step 4: Warm the Corn Tortillas
- To warm the corn tortillas, place them one by one in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until pliable and slightly toasted. Alternatively, wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20-30 seconds.
Step 5: Assemble the Tacos
- Lay the warmed tortillas flat and evenly divide the scrambled eggs among them. Top with cooked turkey bacon, diced avocado, tomatoes, and red onions. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top and finish with fresh cilantro leaves for garnish.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
- Serve the tacos immediately while everything is warm and fresh. These tacos pair wonderfully with salsa or a squeeze of lime to add a little zest.
Notes
- For a vegetarian version, replace turkey bacon with sautéed mushrooms or crispy tempeh.
- Omit cheddar cheese or use plant-based cheese for a dairy-free option.
- Store chopped ingredients separately and assemble tacos just before serving to keep them fresh.
