Ingredients

Scale

Main Protein Ingredients:

  • 8 eggs (large)
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage

Tortilla and Base Ingredients:

  • 68 flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) salsa con queso
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk

Garnish and Topping Ingredients:

  • 2 avocados, sliced
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup (15 g) green onions, sliced
  • 2 cups salsa, for dipping and/or topping
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Blend eggs with salsa con queso, milk, salt, and pepper in a mixing vessel until thoroughly combined and slightly frothy.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium flame and cook breakfast sausage, crumbling and browning until no pink remains and edges become crispy.
  3. Transfer cooked sausage to a clean plate, leaving behind delectable browned bits in the skillet.
  4. Pour egg mixture into the same skillet, gently stirring and folding to create soft, fluffy scrambled eggs with a creamy texture.
  5. Simultaneously, warm flour tortillas using a separate pan or microwave to ensure they are pliable and slightly heated.
  6. Construct tacos by distributing scrambled eggs evenly across warm tortillas, then generously sprinkle cooked sausage on top.
  7. Enhance flavor profile by garnishing with freshly sliced avocados, vibrant diced tomatoes, and finely chopped green onions.
  8. Serve immediately with tangy salsa on the side, allowing diners to customize their taco experience with additional zesty condiment.

Notes

  • Opt for lean turkey or chicken sausage to reduce fat content and create a lighter breakfast option.
  • Swap flour tortillas with corn tortillas for a gluten-free alternative that adds a delightful authentic flavor.
  • Prep ingredients beforehand to streamline cooking process and make morning assembly quick and effortless.
  • Add a sprinkle of Mexican blend cheese for extra richness and depth of flavor without overwhelming the dish.
