Ingredients
  

6 small corn tortillas

4 slices of bacon, chopped into small pieces

4 large eggs

1/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1/4 cup diced fresh tomatoes

1/4 cup diced ripe avocado

2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Cook the Bacon: In a medium skillet, set over medium heat, add the chopped bacon. Cook until the bacon is crispy and browned, approximately 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess fat. Carefully leave about 1 tablespoon of the frying grease in the skillet to enhance flavor.

    Scramble the Eggs: Lower the heat to medium-low in the same skillet. In a bowl, crack the eggs, and season with salt and pepper. Whisk the eggs vigorously until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Add olive oil to the skillet, then pour in the whisked eggs. Stir gently with a spatula, cooking until the eggs are just set yet still slightly creamy; this should take about 3-5 minutes. Once done, remove the skillet from heat, and gently fold in the crispy bacon and the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly combined.

      Warm the Tortillas: In a separate dry skillet over medium heat, warm each corn tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side, or until they are soft and pliable. Keep them wrapped in a clean kitchen towel to retain warmth while you assemble the tacos.

        Assemble the Tacos: Take a warmed tortilla and spoon a generous portion of the bacon and egg mixture onto the center. Finish each taco with a sprinkle of diced tomatoes, creamy avocado, and fresh cilantro to enhance the flavor and texture.

          Serve: Just before serving, squeeze fresh lime juice over the assembled tacos to add a zesty kick. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side for your guests to enjoy.
