Breakfast Tacos

Monday night we made the quick and easy recipe of  Breakfast tacos. It probably took us 15 minutes to make. It has tomatoes in it and so Barry had to eat it, the bacon might have made it go down easier. I used garden tomatoes and not what the recipe called for. I also added garlic, I happen to have a lot on hand. We also used up a red pepper and I really like how it added flavor to it.

We might have used bacon because we ran out of butter, plus it made the man eater happier about what he was about to eat.
Doesn't look like much does it? Add cheese and onion!
When the eggs are set it might still seem runny, but that is just the liquid from the tomatoes.
I garnished mine with sour cream and salsa. Very colorful, it should appeal to your senses.




Over all we really enjoyed it and used up my produce. Whoohoo for cleaning out the fridge and saving money! I had everything except the tortillas and green onions, well and butter.

Recipe:
Breakfast Tacos
  • 1/2 packaged tomatoes, quartered
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 tablespoons butter
  • 3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 5 green onions, sliced thin
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 4 medium flour tortillas, warmed
  • Salsa to garnish (optional)
  • Bacon (garnish
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Stir in tomatoes.
Heat that butter in a large pan over medium high heat. When butter melts and bubbles and smells divine add eggs. Let eggs sit  until edges cook, about one minute. Reduce heat to medium low and stir constantly.
When eggs begin to hold together but are still runny, add cheese and onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until eggs set.
Serve eggs in warm tortillas. Garnish with salsa and bacon and more cheese if you like. 
(This was taken out of a coupon insert from the Sunday paper and is not my recipe, I'm guessing NatureSweet Tomatoes)
