Potato and Egg Breakfast Tacos

This recipe is featured in our 20 Meals from Costco for $150 Meal Plan #1.

I knew that today would be a BUSY day, so I planned accordingly.  Easy “breakfast dinner.”  I try to incorporate breakfast for dinner at least 2 or 3 times a month.  Helps keep the cost down and brings a little more variety to the table. 

(Pun intended.) Plus, I was in no position to be whipping up a fancy meal after today’s media frenzy!!!

Ingredients 

  • 3-4 small white potatoes
  • 1 small bell pepper chopped, optional
  • 1 Tbsp oil
  • 8 large eggs
  • 8 flour tortillas

Instructions

  • Peel and dice potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes.
  • In small skillet, add oil and then diced potatoes. Set to medium and cook for about 8 minutes. Cover and stir 1 or 2 times while cooking. If needed, add 1/4 cup of water to keep potatoes from sticking. Season with salt, pepper and favorite "all purpose" seasoning. (Saute bell peppers with potatoes, if including them.)
  • In bowl, whisk eggs with salt and pepper. When potatoes have browned and softened, add eggs to the skillet. Scramble the eggs with the potatoes.
  • Once eggs have cooked, spoon into tortillas. Place in warm oven until ready to serve. Garnish tacos with shredded cheese or salsa.
  • Prepare fresh fruit, for side dish.
  • Serve Potato and Egg Breakfast Tacos with fruit.
