Taco ’bout a delicious breakfast! Actually, this Breakfast Taco recipe is on my lunch and dinner rotation, too. I just can’t get enough of how amazing they taste, and how easy they are to make. If you only have a few ⏲️ minutes to make a meal, rest assured, you can make these! I used 6-inch gluten-free Almond Flour Tortillas, but feel free to use any tortilla that you love. You can make this recipe with any 🫑 veggies you have on hand such as sautéed mushrooms, hot peppers, or whatever you need to use up in the fridge. I hope you give these a try, and please leave me a comment if you do.
Why You’ll Love This Breakfast Taco
This Breakfast Taco 🌮 recipe comes together so fast, even quicker if you have all your veggies already sliced and ready to go. It’s great for meal prep, it if you have to make a bunch at a time to feed the fam before heading out the door. Each recipe makes two tacos so you can make a big platter for all. I love these because the veggies are sautéed just until crisp, but with a little bite on them. The 🥚 eggs are nice and soft, and perfectly salty and the feta cheese adds a nice little tang!
How to Prepare This Breakfast Taco
🔪 First, using a sharp knife, slice the onion and bell pepper.
🫒 Now, add a tablespoon of olive oil to a pan on medium heat.
🫑 Sauté the onions and pepper for a few minutes. They should have some colour, but also still have a bit of a bite to them.
🧅 Add a small pinch of salt and then place the sautéed veggies in a dish and set aside.
🫒 In the same pan, add another teaspoon of olive oil (if the pan is dry).
🥚 Whisk two eggs and add them in.
🧂 Scramble the eggs, add a pinch of salt and remove onto a plate.
🔥 In that same pan again, warm up the tortillas one at a time for 15 seconds on each side.
🌮 Remove from the heat and assemble: Add a sprinkle of feta to the bottom of one tortilla, then 1/2 of the scrambled egg, and then some of the veggies on top.
😋 Repeat the assembly for the second tortilla, and enjoy.
Nonna’s Tip 🥬
Use whatever veggies you love or have kicking around in the fridge: mushrooms, spinach or onion would all be delicious. You can also experiment by adding a spread, such as hummus or pesto to the base of the tortilla.
