Best Breakfast Tacos Recipe

While breakfast tacos might be your go-to thing to order at your favorite diner, you can easily make them in your own kitchen! Breakfast tacos are typically made with eggs and a protein such as bacon or sausage and we’re here to teach you how to make them! Our recipe uses fluffy scrambled eggs, homemade refried beans, ground chorizo, and tons of toppings.

What Goes in a Breakfast Taco?

Tortilla: feel free to use either flour or corn tortillas. The best kind for breakfast tacos is the “street corn” size. Great for Sharing Lots of Swaps Eggs: we love making perfect scrambled eggs for breakfast tacos. If you’re feeling sassy, you can add some shredded cheese! Breakfast Sausage: we’re using ground chorizo for the breakfast sausage. However, you can use ground pork breakfast sausage or even a ground plant-based meat. Refried Beans: we made our own refried beans with pinto beans, shallot, and garlic, but you can easily buy store-bought refried beans. Toppings: while you can top your breakfast tacos with anything your heart desires, we used homemade pico de gallo, crema, and hot sauce.

Easy Swaps

Chorizo –> other proteins such as breakfast sausage patties, ground turkey, beef taco meat, plant-based ground, or bacon. Scrambled Eggs –> fried eggs, over-medium eggs, or no eggs at all! Refried Beans –> pinto or black beans or no beans at all.
