Ingredients:
- 6 slices of bacon

- 1 cup shredded cheese
- Salsa, to taste
- Fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions:
-
Prepare Fillings: Start by cooking the bacon until crispy. Once cooked, chop it into bite-sized pieces. Set out bowls containing the fillings, including the cooked bacon, shredded cheese, salsa, and chopped cilantro.
-
Build Your Taco: Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Allow each person to customize their taco by placing their desired fillings in the center of the tortilla. Options include crispy bacon, shredded cheese, salsa, and chopped cilantro.
-
Assemble: Once the fillings are added, it’s time to fold the tacos. Gently fold the tortilla over the fillings, creating a taco shape. Serve the tacos as is, or if preferred, follow the next step for an extra special touch.
-
Optional Broiling Step: For an added layer of flavor and texture, consider crisping up the tacos under the broiler. Spread a thin layer of butter on the top half of each folded tortilla. Place the tacos under the broiler for a few minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are slightly crispy.
-
Enjoy: Once the tacos are assembled to your liking, it’s time to dig in! Whether you prefer a classic combination like scrambled eggs, bacon, cheese, salsa, and cilantro, or opt for a vegetarian option like potato, egg, and cheese with salsa, these tacos are sure to be a hit.

Meal Prep Tip: To make mornings even easier, consider prepping the filling ingredients in advance. Cook and chop the bacon, shred the cheese, and chop the cilantro ahead of time. Store the prepared ingredients in separate containers in the refrigerator until ready to use. Then, simply reheat the fillings in the microwave and assemble the tacos for a quick and satisfying breakfast on the go.
