Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 slices bacon
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 8 small corn tortillas warmed
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 0.75 cup pico de gallo
  • 1 medium avocado diced
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1 medium lime cut into wedges
  • 2 teaspoons hot sauce optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy, 7 to 9 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate and chop.
  • Warm tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 to 60 seconds per side or microwave wrapped in a damp paper towel for 20 to 30 seconds. Keep covered to stay warm.
  • Whisk eggs with milk, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
  • Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in eggs and gently scramble, stirring slowly, until just set and still soft, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Assemble tacos: Divide eggs among tortillas. Top with chopped bacon, cheddar, pico de gallo, avocado, and cilantro. Squeeze lime over the top and finish with hot sauce. Serve immediately.

Notes

Time-saver: use pre-cooked bacon or swap in breakfast sausage. Flour tortillas work too—warm them briefly so they’re pliable. For meal prep, cook the bacon ahead and chop toppings; scramble eggs just before serving.
