Breakfast Haiku
Some light reading here
For breakfast lovers who crave
Erotic breakfasts
And some breakfast tacos.....
And a recipe (not mine, it was off the website, though my tacos look quite a bit like these
)....though you can customize them however you like....Breakfast Tacos with Fire Roasted Tomato Salsa
Yield: 8 tacos
Ingredients
1 lb Russet potatoes (about 3 medium)*
1 3/4 cups refried beans, homemade or store bought**
8 oz bacon, cooked and chopped and 2 1/2 Tbsp drippings reserved
6 large eggs
1/3 cup milk
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/4 cups shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese (I use a blend of both)
Fire Roasted Tomato Salsa, recipe follows
8 taco size flour tortillas, warmed
Directions
Scrub and rinse potatoes and pierce each with a fork two times. Place in oven and heat to 400 degrees (it doesn't need to be preheated) and bake 38 minutes. Remove and cool slightly then cool completely in refrigerator (I like to do this the night before and chill them overnight. If you cut them hot they crumble).
Peel cooled potatoes if desired, then cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
Heat reserved bacon drippings in a large skillet over moderately high heat, add potatoes and season with salt and pepper to taste and saute until golden brown, tossing only occasionally to get crisp sides.
Meanwhile, in a blender or bowl blend together eggs and milk until combined. Pour into a buttered skillet over medium-low heat, season with salt and pepper to taste and cook and scramble eggs until set.
To assemble tacos, spread a heaping spoonful of beans into a line down center of each flour tortilla, then pile on eggs, cheese, potatoes, bacon and salsa. Serve immediately.
*For a shortcut here you can just use the frozen diced potatoes (regular or O'brien) and cook in bacon drippings according to directions listed on package.
And .....don't forget your coffee?
