Ingredients
Taco Shells
- 8 medium sprouted corn tortillas
- Avocado oil (for brushing)
- 2 tablespoons homemade taco seasoning blend
Egg Mixture
- 8 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup milk of choice
- 1 fresh garlic clove, minced
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon ghee or grass-fed butter
Toppings
- Crumbled feta or cotija cheese
- Sliced jalapeno
- Sliced green onions
- Chopped avocado
- Lime wedges
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a large baking tray.
- Prepare tortillas: Lay the sprouted corn tortillas on the baking tray, then spray or brush both sides with avocado oil. Sprinkle evenly with homemade taco seasoning and rub the seasoning and oil into both sides.
- Create taco shell shape: Roll four pieces of aluminum foil into 2-3 inch cylinders and place them horizontally across the middle of the baking tray. Lay the tortillas over the foil rolls to form a taco shape, which helps them crisp up perfectly.
- Bake tacos: Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake the tortillas for 10 minutes until crisp.
- Prepare egg mixture: In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper until well combined.
- Cook scrambled eggs: Heat the ghee or grass-fed butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring frequently, until the eggs are softly scrambled to your preferred consistency.
- Assemble tacos: Spoon the scrambled eggs into the crispy corn tortillas. Top each taco with crumbled feta or cotija cheese, sliced jalapenos, green onions, avocado, and a squeeze of fresh lime.
- Serve and enjoy: Serve the breakfast crispy tacos immediately while warm and enjoy a flavorful, satisfying meal to start your day.
Notes
- Sprouted corn tortillas add extra nutrition and a hearty texture but regular corn tortillas can be used as well.
- Homemade taco seasoning blend enhances flavor; alternatively, use store-bought seasoning.
- Use your preferred type of milk, such as cow’s milk, almond milk, or oat milk.
- Adjust spice level by varying the amount of jalapeno or omitting it for a milder dish.
- Ghee can be substituted with butter or a neutral cooking oil if desired.
- These tacos are best served immediately to retain shell crispiness.
