Breakfast Taco
(from iloveelydia’s recipe box)
I decided to make this recipe for 3 people. I used my electric skillet and heated it up to 250 to 300. I used a stick butter when it was hot and just covered the whole surface with butter. I then followed the below recipe.

Ingredients
- •1/2 tbsp butter
- •1 egg
- •salt and pepper
- •1/4 red bell pepper, diced
- •2 tbsp shredded cheese (I used sharp cheddar)
- •1 flour tortilla
- •1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
Directions
-
In a small pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, crack the egg into the pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper, to taste. Add 1 tbsp diced red pepper directly into the egg. I usually poke the yolk with my spatula to let it start running, but if you like your yolk in tact, leave it alone as the egg starts to cook through.
-
Once the whites are opaque and the egg moves around easily when slid underneath with a spatula, around 2-3 minutes, carefully flip over and cook on the other side. Add cheese on top of the egg, and cover the cheese and egg with a tortilla. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, and flip again so the tortilla is on the bottom. Allow the tortilla to crisp up in the pan as you sprinkle the egg with some additional cheese, if desired.
-
Remove tortilla and egg to a plate, and garnish with additional diced pepper and chopped cilantro. Enjoy!
