Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Cheese grater
  • Knife
  • Cutting board

Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs 224g
  • 4 slices bacon 112g
  • 1 medium avocado 150g, sliced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 113g
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro 6g
  • ½ small red onion 50g, finely diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil 15ml
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the Bacon: Preheat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Once done, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.
  • Cook the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs and season with salt and pepper. In the same skillet used for bacon, add a tablespoon of olive oil and pour in the eggs. Scramble the eggs to your liking, then remove from heat.
  • Make Cheese Taco Shells: Preheat another non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese evenly to form a circle. Cook until the cheese melts and starts to brown around the edges, about 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip the cheese over and cook for an additional minute to crisp up. Remove from the skillet and quickly drape over a wooden spoon or rolling pin to form a taco shell shape. Repeat with the remaining cheese.
  • Assemble the Tacos: Break the cooked bacon into pieces. Fill each cheese taco shell with scrambled eggs, bacon pieces, sliced avocado, diced red onion, and cilantro.

Notes

For a spicier kick, add a few slices of jalapeño or a dash of hot sauce. To keep the cheese taco shells warm while assembling, you can place them in a slightly warm oven. If you're avoiding dairy, you can use a dairy-free cheese alternative that melts well. The nutritional information is based on the specific ingredients used and may vary depending on your choices.
