Let’s Get Cooking!
Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat and Prep (5 minutes)
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will make our tacos crispy and delicious in no time! While that’s heating up, chop up your bacon.Cook the Bacon (5 minutes)
In a skillet, add the bacon and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes or until it’s nice and crisp! Stirring occasionally, of course. The aroma is just amazing, it’s like waking up to brunch every day. Once your bacon is cooked, remove it but don’t wipe the pan clean. Those bits of crispy goodness are essential!Sauté the Potatoes (10 minutes)
Add 2 tablespoons of canola oil to the skillet. Toss in your potatoes with a couple pinches of salt and pepper. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the potatoes are golden brown and can easily be pierced with a fork. You’ll want them crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Trust me, scraping those yummy bits off the bottom is worth it!Add Taco Seasoning (3 minutes)
Toss the original taco seasoning mix into the potatoes. Stir together and let it cook for about 3 minutes until fragrant, your kitchen will smell like taco heaven!Prepare the Tortillas (2 minutes)
While the potatoes are cooking, warm your tortillas on another skillet for about 1 minute on each side to make them flexible.Assemble the Tacos (5 minutes)
In each tortilla, add a spoonful of cooked potatoes, some crispy bacon, and pour over some well-beaten eggs. Top it off with a generous sprinkle of Monterey Jack cheese. Fold the tortillas over to create a cute taco shape and place them on a baking sheet.Bake (5-7 minutes)
Pop those tacos in the oven for 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. You want that perfectly crispy outer shell with cheesy goodness in the middle. Just divine!Serve and Enjoy!
Remove from the oven and prepare to dig in! I love to serve them with some extra toppings like salsa, avocado, or hot sauce. The fresh toppings complement the savory filling perfectly!

- Life is Better with Hot Sauce: Always have your favorite hot sauce handy for an extra kick!
Storage & Reheating
These tacos keep well in the fridge for about 3-4 days in an airtight container. To reheat, just place them in a 350°F (175°C) oven for about 10 minutes or until warmed through. You can also microwave them, just be sure to cover them to keep them from getting tough!
Freezer Friendly? You bet! Assemble the tacos but don’t bake them. Freeze them in plastic wrap then place them in a freezer bag for up to 3 months. When you’re ready, bake straight from frozen, just add a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
Enjoy the tacos, my friends. For more recipes, Follow us on Pinterest
