  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 25 minute

Ingredients

– 12 corn or flour tortillas
– 8 large eggs
– 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your choice)
– 1 cup cooked breakfast sausage or chorizo (optional)
– 1 small onion, diced
– 1 bell pepper, diced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon Taco seasoning
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
– Salsa or hot sauce for serving (optional)


Instructions

Creating Baked Breakfast Tacos is wonderfully straightforward. Follow these steps to ensure a delicious outcome:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.

2. Sauté Vegetables: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, cooking until soft, about 5 minutes.

3. Cook Eggs: In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with vegetables, stirring gently until cooked through.

4. Combine with Meat: If using sausage or chorizo, mix this into the cooked eggs and vegetables until thoroughly incorporated.

5. Prepare Tortillas: Arrange the tortillas on a clean surface. Spoon a portion of the egg mixture into each tortilla, then sprinkle cheese over the top.

6. Fold Tacos: Fold the tortillas to form tacos. If using corn tortillas, you may want to warm them slightly for better folding.

7. Bake Tacos: Place the folded tacos in a greased baking dish, seam side down. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the tortillas are slightly crisp and the cheese is melted.

8. Garnish: Once out of the oven, garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.

9. Serve: Allow to cool for a few minutes, then serve with salsa or hot sauce.

These simple steps will ensure your Baked Breakfast Tacos turn out brilliantly every time.
