Best 10 Tex Mex Egg Salad Tacos Recipes

TEX-MEX EGG SALAD TACOS

Steps:

• Combine first 3 ingredients in a bowl; set aside.
• Combine mayonnaise and next 4 ingredients; fold into egg mixture.
• Line taco shells with lettuce.
• Spoon egg salad evenly onto taco shells.
• Garnish, if desired, and serve with salsa.

TEX-MEX TACO CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the quick pickled onions: Combine the vinegar, sugar, salt, peppercorns, bay leaf and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and stir to dissolve the sugar and salt. Put the jalapeno and red onion in a medium heatsafe bowl and pour the hot vinegar mixture over. Let cool to room temperature. (The onions can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to a week.)
• For the taco cups: Lightly spray the tortillas on both sides with cooking spray and dust with the chili powder. Fit each tortilla into a cup of a standard muffin pan, pleating the edges and making a space in the center to form a cup. Stagger the tortillas in the muffin pan so they are not bunched together. Bake until crisp and browned on the edges but still pliable in the center, about 8 minutes.
• For the iceberg slaw. Whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, mustard, garlic powder and lime juice in a large bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Add the lettuce, carrot, cilantro, scallion and bell pepper and toss to coat the vegetables in the dressing.
• For the taco filling: When ready to serve, heat a grill pan over medium heat. Grill the sausage slices, turning frequently, until heated through, 3 to 4 minutes.
• To serve, divide the sausage among the taco cups. Top with some slaw, pickled onions, Cheddar and avocado. Serve with lime wedges.

BACON AND EGG TACOS

Steps:

• In a skillet cook the bacon until crisp; remove to a plate (you may drain the fat or leave a few tablespoons in the skillet and omit the butter).
• In a bowl whisk the eggs with cream, baking powder, salt and pepper until well combined, then add in the cooked bacon.
• Heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat until sizzling.
• Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook until almost firm but still slightly watery.
• Add in the cheese and cook gently stirring until the eggs are just cooked and the cheese has melted.
• Spoon about 1/4 cup or a little more down the center of each warm tortilla, then sprinkle a small amount of green onions (if using) over the egg mixture.
• Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling.
• You may place the rolled tortillas in a baking dish, cover with foil and keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.
• Serve with salsa.

EGG TACOS

Steps:

• Step 1.
• Beat the eggs in a medium bowl.
• Step 2.
• Add ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
• Step 3.
• In a large nonstick kadai, heat butter over medium-high heat. Cook the eggs for 2-3 minutes until soft.
• Step 4.
• Flip in the eggs evenly into the tortilla chips.
• Step 5.
• Top with avocado, salsa, cheese and cilantro.

TEX-MEX BREAKFAST TACOS

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together egg whites and 2 tablespoons water; season with salt and pepper. In a nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium. Add egg mixture; cook, stirring with a heatproof rubber spatula, just until set, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Wrap stacked tortillas in a damp paper towel; microwave on high for 10 seconds. Dividing evenly, top one half of each tortilla with eggs, salsa, avocado, and scallions. Sprinkle with lime juice, and if desired, top with cilantro; fold and serve.

CHORIZO, POTATO, AND EGG BREAKFAST TACOS (TEX-MEX)

Steps:

• Peel and dice 3 medium baking potatoes. Pieces should be about what you would do for potato salad (about 1/2" cubed).
• Heat oil and brown potatoes. Season liberally with salt and pepper. Once the potatoes start to brown, reduce heat and cover. The idea is to have them lightly brown, but still soft. Add the sliced onions when you cover and reduce the temp to med-low. Stir occasionally. When done, set aside.
• The best chorizo is a kielbasa style (big fat links in natural skin). Remove from skin and chop up. Fry in skillet until done, drain and set aside. Reserve 2 tbl of the chorizo grease.
• Scramble the eggs in the reserved grease. Salt and pepper the eggs, and when almost set, add the potatoes and the chorizo.
• Fold the mixture together then cover and remove from the heat. Serve immediately on warm flour tortillas, toped with cheddar cheese and your favorite taco sauce.

TEX-MEX PASTA SALAD

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with water; pour in the olive oil and salt. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in the fusilli, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 9 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and stir in the ground beef. Cook and stir until the beef is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease. Mix in taco seasoning mix, remove from heat, and cool completely.
• Combine salsa, ranch dressing, bell peppers, green onions, jalapenos, and black olives in a medium bowl. Toss together the cooked pasta, cooled beef mixture, Cheddar cheese, and dressing mixture in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.

TEX-MEX TUNA SALAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the tuna, olives, green onions and celery; toss together.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the salsa, sour cream and cumin. Pour over tuna mixture; lightly toss to mix.
• Line taco shells with shredded lettuce and spoon tuna mixture into shells. Drizzle with additional salsa or top with additional sour cream if desired.

TEX-MEX MINI TACO BITES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Use a 3-inch round cookie cutter to cut 4 rounds out of each tortilla. Carefully press the rounds into each cup of a 24-cup mini muffin tin.
• Bake the tortilla rounds in the preheated oven until light golden and crisp, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Stir in taco seasoning.
• Transfer beef to a bowl and stir in beans, tomato sauce, and diced tomatoes. Spoon mixture into tortilla cups and top each cup with 1 teaspoon Monterey Jack cheese.
• Place muffin pan on a baking sheet and return to the oven; bake until cheese is melted and bubbly and filling is heated through, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Top with sour cream and green onion to serve.
