Ingredients

  • 6 corn tortillas recipe link above
  • 2 large russet potatoes, peeled and chopped small
  • 6 strips bacon, cooked
  • salsa
  • 1 ripe avocado, cubed
  • cotija cheese
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp. cilantro, minced

  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp. cooking oil like olive or avocado oil
  • 1/2 tbsp. butter

Instructions

  • Start by cooking the potatoes. In a skillet on med-high heat, add the oil and potatoes. Season with salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
  • Cook until they are golden brown. Turn the heat to low to keep warm.
  • Now the eggs, add the butter in a small pan over medium heat. Season with salt and pepper. Scramble and cook.
  • Before we assemble, heat the tortillas up. It usually only takes a minute or so on a hot griddle or pan.
  • Alright lets put them together. Fill the tortillas with even amounts of the potatoes, eggs, and bacon. Now add some salsa, fresh avocado, cotija cheese, and fresh cilantro.
    I serve 2 tacos per person.
  • ENJOY!
  • *Bacon tips. If you have a air fryer I recommend cooking the bacon in there. Lay the strips in the basket (not touching) air fry on 360° for 10-12 minutes. You can also bake the bacon. Lay the strips on an aluminum foil lined baking sheet. at 350° for 15 minutes.
