I love breakfast foods for dinner. One of my, “Oh my it’s dinner time, and I don’t have a plan” stand by dinners is Scrambled Egg Tacos. They literally take fifteen minutes to prepare and serve. My family loves these!
Ingredients:
12 large eggs
2 tablespoons olive oil, butter, or bacon grease (my favorite)
1/4 cup bacon bits or ham
1/2-3/4ths shredded cheddar cheese
salt and pepper to taste
I always crack the eggs on the sink rather than the bowl so that shell fragments don’t fall into the bowl. Then whisk the eggs to scramble them. A fork works great to scramble the eggs if you don’t feel like dragging out a whisk!
Heat the oil over medium high heat in a large frying pan. When hot, add the eggs, salt, and pepper continuously scraping bottom of pan to prevent burning and cook evenly.
When eggs are almost done add the bacon. Stir. Sometimes I fry bacon, but I love to have these packages of real bacon bits on hand to add to dishes in a hurry. I don’t like mushy scrambled eggs so I cook them just until they no longer appear gooey.
Remove from heat and mix in the cheese. Serve immediately.
We always serve these with salsa. When fresh isn’t available we love green bottled salsa. My current favorite is the La Costena!
This is such a yummy, quick meal with high protein. What is your favorite quick dinner to serve your family?
Those look so good & easy! Perfect for a busy weekend breakfast!
Yum! I never thought about something like this. Quick and easy, but tasty. I am going to try this next weekend.
Great idea! My daughter LOVES tacos — this might get her to eat her eggs!
Well this just sealed my lunch! We are making them! Looks way to good. I will be adding a dap of salsa on mine!
Pinned for this weekend 🙂
My kids will love this, we’ll have to try it this weekend!
Breakfast burritos are one of my favorite foods! I have never tried to make breakfast tacos. Since I already have all of the ingredients needed for this recipe I will try and make these tomorrow! They look delicious!
We love these! We usually mix in pre-cut kale or baby spinach to get a vegetable into the plates too!
We make burritos but I never thought of tacos. These sound so good!
What a fun way to eat eggs! I’m sure my family would love to try this, I’m not sure why I didn’t think of it before!
These look yummy and my kids would love them too! I could eat eggs any time of day!!
Oh yum…these look really easy to make. I cannot believe I haven’t tried something like this before – there are so many different possibilities!
those look so good. i love eggs and tacos 🙂
That looks delicious! Will have to make this for breakfast tomorrow.
I never thought of that idea, putting eggs on tacos. It will be worth a try!
This looks like a simple and easy dinner!
