Breakfast Essentials Egg Bacon Cheese Tacos Recipes

BREAKFAST ESSENTIALS: EGG, BACON, CHEESE TACOS

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
• 3. Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 350f (175c).
• 4. Drape the taco over the wire rack, and shape until the edges are pointing down. Cook until the tortilla begins to crisp, and holds its form. Remove from the oven, and reserve.
• 5. Place a skillet over medium heat, and add the diced bacon.
• 6. Cook to your desired crispness, then remove from pan, and drain on paper towels.
• 7. Remove all but a teaspoon of grease from the pan, and add the whisked eggs.
• 8. Scramble until almost cooked, then remove from the heat, add the bacon and combine.
• 9. Chef's Note: Season with a bit of salt and pepper, if using.
• 10. THE ASSEMBLY
• 11. Add the salsa to the bottom of the taco. Stuff with the egg/bacon mixture. Top with the cheese. If you want the cheese melty (up to you), stick it under a broiler for about 20 seconds.
• 12. PLATE/PRESENT
• 13. I like to serve it with some sliced tomatoes, sprinkled with a bit of salt and pepper; however, that is totally up to you. Enjoy.
• 14. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

BREAKFAST TACOS

Steps:

• To warm the tortillas: Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Divide the tortillas into two stacks of 5 and wrap each stack in foil. Place the stacks on an ungreased baking sheet. Place in the oven and heat for 8 to 10 minutes, until warmed through. Set aside and leave wrapped until ready to serve.
• In a large, deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot but not yet smoking, add the turkey sausage (stand back, as it may splatter). Cook, breaking apart the meat into small pieces with a wooden spoon or a heatproof spatula, until brown and fully cooked through, about 8 minutes.
• Add the beans and salsa. Stir to combine, and with the back of a large spoon, lightly mash the beans. Cook until the beans are heated through and the salsa liquid has cooked off, about 3 minutes. Stir in about two-thirds of the green onions, reserving a small handful for serving. Let cook 30 seconds, then remove the filling from the heat.
• Stuff and serve! Pile the filling into warm tortillas, adding about 1/3 cup to each. Top each with a generous tablespoon of cheese or any other desired toppings. Enjoy immediately.
