Directions

Prep 10 minCook 30 min
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375 degees F.

  2. 2

    Start off by cooking the bacon. Line a baking sheet with foil and bake 3 strips in an oven for about 15-20 minutes.

  3. 3

    While the bacon is cooking, heat 1/3 cup of mozzarella at a time on clean pan on medium heat. This cheese will form our taco shells.

  4. 4

    Wait until the cheese is browned on the edges (about 2-3 minutes). Slide a spatula under it to unstick it. This should happen easily if you’re using whole milk mozzarella as the oil from the cheese will prevent it from sticking.

  5. 5

    Use a pair of tongs to lift the shell up and drape it over a wooden spoon resting on a pot. Do the same with the rest of your cheese, working in batches of 1/3 cups.

  6. 6

    Next, cook your eggs in the butter, stirring occasionally until they’re done. Season with salt and pepper.

  7. 7

    Spoon a third of your scrambled eggs into each hardened taco shell.

  8. 8

    Then add sliced avocado on top.

  9. 9

    Follow this by adding the bacon (either chopped or whole strips).

  10. 10

    Lastly, sprinkle cheddar cheese over the tops of the breakfast tacos. Enjoy!
