We often make my Dad’s breakfast burritos which we love but never breakfast tacos! I have had an abundance of corn shells in my CSA delivery basket so decided why not try Breakfast Tacos! Sterling and Frances can be hit or miss at breakfast but they both really loved the tacos. Sterling said, “these tacos are so good, they need to be in your cookbook”. They are so simple too, I made mine very basic for the kids but you could totally add in any sautéed veggies you want. I almost did spinach but Sterling snubbed his nose-haha! I made them and then kept them on a baking sheet in the oven on warm until ready to eat. Enjoy!

love me breakfast tacos and breakfast burritos – out of curiosity – what does the cottage cheese do when added to the eggs?
I was wondering the same thing.
