Breakfast Tacos

Scrambled eggs are a staple for breakfast in our home. To be honest, I was a little tired of them. I found a recipe for Huevos Rancheros, when I was poking around looking for something to do for breakfast.  I liked the idea, but I wanted to use fresh ingredients. So, after playing around for awhile, I created these breakfast tacos and they are served with pico de gallo.

After I prepare the filling ingredients, my family will make their own tacos with their favorite fillings. It is a win/win for everyone. They can have exactly the tacos that they want and I don’t have stand around and be a short order cook.

Be creative with your ingredients and try different toppings. These tacos are the perfect vehicle to use up any leftovers.  I had leftover chicken and sautéed mushrooms from the night before, so of course I just heated them up for our tacos. If you have Swiss chard or kale, chop them up finely and then switch those greens in for the lettuce.

These breakfast tacos are also perfect for those times when you have not pulled anything out for dinner. Serve them up with a salad or with quick fried potatoes for a filling and delicious dinner.
