These Morning Hustle Tacos bring together cheesy scrambled eggs, crisp bacon or breakfast sausage, fire-roasted salsa, and a creamy drizzle—wrapped in a warm tortilla that hits like a hug.
Ingredients
For the Tacos:
6 large eggs
¼ cup half & half or milk
1 tbsp butter
Salt & pepper, to taste
½ cup shredded sharp cheddar or pepper jack
6 small flour tortillas, warmed
4 strips bacon or ½ lb breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
½ cup fire-roasted salsa (see recipe below)
1 avocado, sliced or mashed
Hot sauce (optional)
Lime Crema (Optional):
¼ cup sour cream
Juice of ½ lime
Pinch of salt
Dash of hot sauce
Instructions
Cook the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk eggs, half & half, salt, and pepper. In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Pour in eggs and cook gently, stirring with a spatula, until just set. Fold in cheese at the end so it melts.
Prep the Tortillas: Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Wrap in a clean towel to keep soft.
Make the Lime Crema: Whisk together sour cream, lime juice, salt, and hot sauce. Chill until ready.
Assemble the Tacos: Layer each tortilla with eggs, bacon or sausage, avocado, a spoonful of salsa, and a drizzle of crema.
Chef Paddy’s Tips
Go veggie? Sub in crispy potatoes or sautéed peppers & onions.
Make it a tray bake: Prep all ingredients ahead and let folks build their own.
Extra hustle: Add hash browns or hot sauce right inside the taco. No wrong moves.
