How to Make Bacon Egg And Cheese Breakfast Taco

  1. Cook bacon until crispy. Remove from pan and set aside, reserving about 1 tablespoon of bacon grease.
  2. In the same pan, scramble eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper until cooked through.
  3. Warm your tortillas according to package directions (microwave or skillet).
  4. Place a tortilla on a plate. Spread a small amount of the reserved bacon grease on the tortilla.
  5. Layer scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese onto the tortilla.
  6. Fold the tortilla in half or roll it up tightly.
  7. For extra melty cheese and crispy bacon, grill the taco on your George Foreman grill for 2-3 minutes, or microwave for 1 minute until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
