Description

Delicious breakfast tacos filled with golden roasted potatoes, scrambled eggs, melty cheese, avocado, and salsa, perfect for any time of day.


Ingredients

  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 1 large russet potato (about 1012 oz), peeled and diced small
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil (vegetable, canola, or avocado)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (for potatoes)
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon butter (for eggs)
  • 6 large eggs, whisked and seasoned with a pinch of salt and pepper
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella (or Chihuahua/Monterey Jack)
  • 1 ripe avocado, thinly sliced
  • Salsa of your choice (tomato, tomatillo, or store-bought)


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Peel and finely dice the russet potato into roughly 1/2-inch cubes. Toss with oil, salt, smoked paprika, and black pepper, then spread on an oiled baking sheet.
  3. Roast for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  4. Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat and add whisked eggs. Stir gently until mostly set, about 3–4 minutes, then remove from heat.
  5. Warm tortillas in a skillet over medium-high heat, adding cheese to one half, folding, and pressing gently until melted.
  6. Assemble tacos by adding scrambled eggs, roasted potatoes, avocado slices, and salsa. Serve immediately.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, omit the cheese and use plant-based butter for the eggs. You can swap out ingredients as desired for different tastes.
