Time 25m

Yield 8 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 hard corn taco shells
6 large eggs
1 teaspoon taco seasoning with salt or chili powder
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup shredded Mexican-style cheese blend
3 or 4 scallions, chopped
1/2 cup salsa or taco sauce
1 cup shredded romaine or iceberg lettuce
1/2 cup grape tomatoes, halved or quartered if large
Sliced black olives and sour cream, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Warm the taco shells on a baking sheet, about 5 minutes.
  • Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the taco seasoning and whisk well with a fork. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Melt the butter in the skillet; when it foams and bubbles, add the eggs and reduce the heat to low. Cook the eggs, stirring regularly with a wooden spatula to break them up, until set, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Line the center of each taco shell with about 2 generous tablespoons of the scrambled eggs. Top with some of the cheese, scallions and lettuce and a spoonful of salsa. Garnish with some chopped tomatoes, and serve with olives and sour cream on the side if using.

  • Place another third of the round strips of tortilla on top of the chips in a fanning pattern. Sprinkle the rest of the cheddar cheese on top of the tortillas. Spread the rest of the ground beef mixture on top of the cheese. Sprinkle the rest of the Monterey Jack on top of the ground beef mixture. Place the rest of the tortillas on top of the cheese in a fanning pattern.
