3/4 cup shredded cheese
8 strips cooked bacon (cut in half)
2 cups roasted breakfast roasted breakfast potatoes
kosher salt (to taste)
freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Spread the taco shells across a baking sheet and warm for 5-6 minutes until crisp. While the taco shells are in the oven, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Pour in the eggs and gently scramble them. Let them cook without messing with them too much. Season with salt and pepper. When the eggs are barely solid, remove from the heat. You want to avoid overcooking them, because they will finish cooking in the pan while you assemble the tacos.
  • Remove the taco shells from the oven. Divide the scrambled eggs between the warm shells. Add the potatoes, strips of bacon and a sprinkling of cheese. Serve immediately or place the tray of finished tacos in the oven for a couple more minutes to melt the cheese. Enjoy!

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE BREAKFAST CASSEROLE



Bacon, Egg and Cheese Breakfast Casserole image

Falling somewhere between a frittata and a tortilla española, this breakfast casserole has everything you love about a classic bacon, egg and cheese sandwich: smoky bacon, perfectly set eggs, sharp Cheddar and, if you want (and you definitely do), tangy hot sauce. Thinly sliced potatoes are added for structure and heft, and cooking them will be the most time-consuming part of this whole dish. The great news is that it's as delicious (if not more so) the next day, rewarmed or not. If you like, you can bake the casserole the night before and refrigerate, covered, when cool. To reheat, cover with foil and place in a 325-degree oven until warmed through, 25 to 30 minutes.

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound thick-cut bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 pounds russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, unpeeled, sliced 1/4-inch thick or cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced into rings
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
10 large eggs
6 ounces shredded sharp Cheddar or Monterey Jack
Hot sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cook bacon in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until crisp and the fat has rendered out, 8 to 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove from skillet, leaving fat behind.
  • Add olive oil, potatoes and onion slices to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally until the potatoes are tender and start to brown, and the onions are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Return bacon to skillet and stir to combine so that everything is distributed evenly.
  • In a large bowl, whisk eggs together and season with salt and pepper. Add cheese and whisk to blend. Transfer potato mixture to a 1 1/2- to 2-quart baking dish (any shape will work) and pour egg mixture over. Place in oven and bake until eggs are puffed around the edges and just set in the center, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and let cool slightly before eating. Serve with hot sauce if you like.

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Always use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture. Fresh eggs, crisp bacon, and sharp cheese will make a big difference in the overall taste of your breakfast taco.
  • Cook the Bacon Perfectly: Perfectly cooked bacon is crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. To achieve this, cook the bacon over medium heat until it is evenly browned. You can also use an air fryer to cook the bacon, which will give it a crispy texture without the grease.
  • Scramble the Eggs Properly: Soft, fluffy scrambled eggs are the perfect filling for a breakfast taco. To achieve this, whisk the eggs with a little milk or cream before cooking them over medium heat. Stir the eggs constantly to prevent them from overcooking.
  • Use a Variety of Cheeses: Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese to find your favorite combination. Some popular choices include cheddar, Monterey Jack, pepper Jack, and queso fresco.
  • Add Your Favorite Toppings: Once you have assembled your breakfast taco, top it with your favorite toppings. Some popular choices include salsa, sour cream, guacamole, and pico de gallo.
