Ingredients

Scale

Protein:

  • 4 Breakfast sausage
  • 4 Eggs

Dairy and Cheese:

  • 1/4 cup Whole milk
  • 1/2 cup Salsa con queso
  • 1/4 cup Diced tomatoes

Fresh Ingredients and Seasonings:

  • 1 Avocados
  • 2 Green onions
  • 2 Soft flour tortillas
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup Salsa

Instructions

  1. Whisk eggs with salsa con queso and whole milk, incorporating salt and black pepper for enhanced flavor profile.
  2. Brown breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat until fully cooked and slightly crispy, approximately 6-7 minutes.
  3. Fold cooked sausage into scrambled egg mixture, creating a cohesive protein base.
  4. Carefully dice ripe avocados and fresh tomatoes into uniform small cubes, ensuring clean cuts.
  5. Thinly slice green onions at a diagonal for added visual appeal and sharp flavor.
  6. Gently warm tortillas on a griddle or skillet for 15-20 seconds on each side, maintaining soft texture.
  7. Layer tortillas with generous spoonfuls of sausage-egg mixture, distributing evenly across surface.
  8. Garnish tacos with prepared avocado, tomato, and green onion toppings.
  9. Finish with a drizzle of additional salsa for extra zest and moisture.

Notes

  • Choose soft flour tortillas for a more pliable and tender taco base.
  • Drain excess grease from sausage to prevent soggy tortillas and maintain a crisp texture.
  • Grate fresh cheese instead of using pre-shredded for better melting and richer flavor.
  • Customize toppings by adding pickled jalapeños or cilantro for extra zest and complexity.
