Easy Breakfast Tacos: Velvety Eggs and Cheese

Cook the breakfast sausage or bacon until fully browned. Remove meat from the pan, reserving approximately 1 tablespoon of the rendered fat in the skillet.

Whisk eggs in a bowl with salt and pepper. Melt butter over medium-low heat in the skillet. Pour in eggs, let sit for 10 seconds, then gently push curds from edges to center. Remove from heat while eggs still look soft and slightly underdone.

Wipe the skillet clean or use a gas burner. Lightly brush each tortilla with vegetable oil and heat for 30 seconds per side until lightly charred and pliable.

Immediately place a pinch of cheese on each hot tortilla. Layer with scrambled eggs and cooked protein. Top with avocado, salsa, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
