Ingredients
- 8 small flour or corn tortillas
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 8 slices bacon
- 1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
Instructions
- Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then crumble.
- In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Pour off all but 1 tablespoon bacon drippings from skillet (or use butter). Melt butter over medium heat, then add egg mixture. Cook, stirring gently, until eggs are just set but still moist, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
- Assemble tacos: fill each tortilla with scrambled eggs, crumbled bacon, cheese, avocado slices, and salsa. Garnish with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
Tips
- For a vegetarian version, omit bacon and use butter or oil.
- Customize with toppings like sour cream, hot sauce, or diced tomatoes.
- Warm tortillas individually in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side.
