Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter
  • ¼ cup finely diced red bell pepper
  • 2 green onions sliced, whites and greens divided
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 6 slices Bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 8 small corn tortillas or flour tortillas, warmed
  • ¼ cup sour cream optional
  • ¼ cup salsa optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs and milk with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Heat tortillas according to package directions. Wrap in foil to keep warm.
  3. In a medium non-stick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the whites of the green onions and the bell peppers. Cook until tender, about 3 minutes.
  4. Pour in the egg mixture and scramble gently until set but still shiny.
  5. Divide eggs over tortillas. Sprinkle cheese over top and cover for 1 minute to allow the cheese to melt (or broil in the oven for 1 minute if desired).
  6. Top with the tops of the green onions and your favorite toppings like crumbled bacon.
  7. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • To make ahead, prepare as directed using flour tortillas. Wrap individually and refrigerate up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave.
  • To freeze: Wrap in foil and place foil-wrapped tacos in a freezer bag.
  • To reheat: Thaw tacos in the fridge overnight.  Place on a plate, cover with a paper towel and reheat about 1 ½ -2 minutes. Microwaves can vary so check the tacos to ensure they're heated through.
