Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Medium bowl
  • Blender or food processor

Ingredients
  

Eggs and Base:

  • 4 large eggs
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter

Fillings:

  • 3 slices thick-cut bacon chopped
  • 2 shallots thinly sliced
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup fresh spinach or baby kale chopped
  • 1 avocado sliced
  • 2 green onions chopped

Tortillas and Sides:

  • 4 corn or flour tortillas warmed
  • Lime wedges for serving
  • Chipotle Salsa recipe below or store-bought salsa

Chipotle Salsa:

  • 1 14-ounce can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
  • ¼ cup chipotle peppers in adobo
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
  • Kosher salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Cook the Bacon: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped bacon and cook until crispy (about 5 minutes). Remove and drain on a paper towel–lined plate. Crumble into pieces.
  • Cook the Shallots: In the same skillet, cook shallots over medium heat until caramelized (about 3 minutes). Remove and drain on a paper towel. Shallots will crisp as they cool.
  • Scramble the Eggs: Wipe out the skillet, melt butter over medium heat, and add the whisked eggs. Cook gently, stirring with a rubber spatula, until fluffy but just set (about 2 minutes). Fold in the cheddar cheese and transfer to a plate.
  • Assemble the Tacos: Layer the tortillas with spinach, scrambled eggs, avocado slices, crispy bacon, shallots, and green onions. Serve with lime wedges and chipotle salsa.

Chipotle Salsa Preparation:

  • Combine tomatoes, chipotle peppers, and sesame seeds in a blender or food processor. Pulse until smooth (about 1 minute).
  • Taste and season with kosher salt. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

  • To make this recipe vegetarian, skip the bacon and use additional crispy shallots or roasted chickpeas for texture.
  • Warming the tortillas directly over a flame adds a charred flavor that pairs beautifully with the chipotle salsa.
