Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 6 slices Bacon Adds savory flavor and crunch; substitute turkey bacon for a lighter option.
  • 2 cups Potatoes (Yukon Gold/Russet) Provides a hearty base with a creamy texture; substitute red potatoes for a quicker cook.
  • 6 large Eggs Essential for protein and fluffiness; scramble until slightly undercooked for creaminess.
For the Taco Shells
  • 8 pieces Corn Tortillas Forms the shell for the tacos; flour tortillas can be used but may not crisp as well.
For the Topping
  • 1 cup Monterey Jack Cheese Melts beautifully for added creaminess; substitute with cheddar or dairy-free cheese for variety.
  • 2 tablespoons Taco Seasoning Enhances flavor; opt for homemade or store-bought blends to season your mixture.
