Who says tacos can't be eaten for breakfast? These Breakfast Tacos are the best – they're filled with eggs, bacon, and all the fixings!

Ingredients and substitutions
- Turkey bacon – you can use regular bacon, just keep in mind that it’ll increase the calorie count.
- Butter – swap out for a butter substitute of your choice.
- Eggs – you can make this recipe with egg whites too. If you use egg whites, I suggest doubling the number of eggs used.
- Salt & pepper – to taste.
- Cheddar cheese – another kind of cheese such as Monterey Jack would also be good in these tacos.
- Corn tortillas – flour tortillas will also work, I just love the authentic flavour of corn tortillas.
- Avocado – feel free to swap out the fresh avocado for store-bought guacamole instead.
- Pico de gallo – jarred or fresh salsa would also be good here.
- Jalapeno – substitute the jalapeno for bell peppers if you’re not a fan of spice or leave this off altogether.
- Cilantro – leave this off altogether if you don’t like cilantro.
- Hot sauce – use your favourite hot sauce or leave this off if you don’t want the heat.

These breakfast tacos will last in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can technically store them assembled, but I’d recommend storing all the ingredients separately then assembling the tacos right before eating them so they stay as fresh as possible.
Freezing this recipe
I wouldn’t recommend freezing this recipe. You can try freezing some of the components separately, but they’re so easy and quick to make, I’d suggest just whipping them up fresh. If you’re looking for a freezer-friendly option, try my Meal Prep Freezer Breakfast Burritos!
