Ingredients

  • 4flour tortillas (6-inch)
  • 4large eggs
  • 4 slicesthick-cut bacon
  • 1/2 cupshredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbspwhole milk
  • 1 tbspunsalted butter
  • 1/4 tspsalt
  • 1/8 tspblack pepper
  • 1/4 cupsalsa

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large skillet over medium heat, fry the bacon until crisp, about 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain, crumble into bite-sized pieces, and discard excess bacon grease (leaving about 1 tsp in the pan).

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until completely combined and slightly frothy.

  3. 3

    Warm the tortillas: stack them wrapped in a clean, damp paper towel and microwave on high for 20 to 25 seconds until hot and flexible, then keep wrapped in a kitchen towel.

  4. 4

    Return the skillet to medium-low heat and melt 1 tbsp butter with the bacon drippings. Pour in the egg mixture and let it sit undisturbed for 20 seconds.

  5. 5

    Use a silicone spatula to gently sweep across the bottom of the pan, forming soft, creamy curds. Cook for 2 minutes until just barely set, remove from heat, and fold in half the cheddar cheese and the crumbled bacon.

  6. 6

    Divide the scrambled egg and bacon mixture evenly among the 4 warm tortillas.

  7. 7

    Top each taco with the remaining cheddar and a spoonful of salsa. Serve immediately.
