Easy Breakfast Tacos
- 4 flour tortillas
- 4 slices uncured bacon
- 4 large cage-free eggs, lightly beaten
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 cup crumbled cotija or shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
- 1/2 cup pico de gallo or other fresh salsa
- 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
- Hot sauce, to taste
Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
One by one, cook tortillas until warmed through and lighlty browned on both sides. Keep warm in a folded dish towel as you finish the others.
After the tortillas have been warmed, add bacon and cook until browned and crisped, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel to drain, then pour out all but about a teaspoon of oil.
Add eggs and salt; cook over medium heat, pushing egg into the center skillet with a spatula to form soft curds, until eggs are barely set, about 3 minutes.
Divide eggs between tortillas and sprinkle with cheese and pico de gallo. Top with a bacon slice and cilantro leaves and serve with hot sauce.
