Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 8 oz Bacon Adds savory richness and crispiness; opt for a good meat-to-fat ratio for optimal crisp edges.
  • 2 cups Potatoes Provide hearty texture and substance; choose firm, smooth-skinned potatoes to prevent mushiness.
  • 6 large Eggs Create a creamy filling; fresh eggs yield the best results.
For the Wrap
  • 8 count Corn Tortillas Serve as the tasty wrap; fresh tortillas offer the best flavor and softness.
For the Topping
  • 1 cup Monterey Jack Cheese Provides meltiness and flavor; shredding your own cheese enhances texture and taste.

Equipment

Method
 

Baked Breakfast Tacos Instructions
  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by setting your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for your delightful tacos.
  2. Prepare Potatoes: Dice your firm and smooth-skinned potatoes. Sauté them in a skillet over medium heat until they turn golden brown, adding your favorite seasonings.
  3. Cook Bacon: Chop your bacon and cook it in the same skillet until crispy. Let it cool slightly, then break it into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Scramble Eggs: In a separate bowl, whisk fresh eggs together. Pour them into the skillet and cook on low heat. Stir gently until they are creamy and set.
  5. Assemble Tacos: Layer the potatoes, crispy bacon, and fluffy scrambled eggs on corn tortillas. Top each one with shredded Monterey Jack cheese for that melty goodness.
  6. Bake: Place the assembled tacos on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes. Watch for the cheese to become bubbly and golden.
