I was tending a little 3 year old that is allergic to peanuts, egg, milk, and soy. (whew, right?) So I made these breakfast tacos. They were pretty darn good!!
I am sorry for the crazy fuzzy pictures, they looked fine on my phone, but then when I moved them to my computer they were not so grand, but by then all the tacos were gone. :(\
First I chopped up some green peppers, mushrooms, white onions, turkey sausage, and bacon and sauteed them until they were nice and brown and smelled yummy.
While I was sauteing that I was boiling some rice. I love the long grain boil in a bag rice, but you can use any kind of rice you'd like.
I then added the rice and some black beans to the pan. I use no salt added canned black beans and then drain and rinse them thoroughly first.
Then I put them in a corn tortilla and top with some tomatoes. (shown above)
I like to make sure that the corn tortillas are just corn meal and not corn treated with lime. Unfortunately the store I was at last night preparing for today did not have that option. It makes it a better quality tortilla and besides, who the heck wants to eat lime??? (not lime the citrus fruit, but Lime the chemical.) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_%28material%29)
After I fed the little one I scrambled up some eggs to toss the rest of the mixture into.
(no offense little guy, but I wanted to taste it that way too)
And for the record: I really liked the plain one with no egg or cheese. Would be better if I had added a slice or two of avocado, but didn't think of that until later.
I topped this one with some tomatoes and cheddar cheese. It was Fabulous!
Again, I should have gotten out some avocado. But next time I will. :)
Let me know in the comments if you tried this one and how you liked it.
Have a Great Tuesday and
HAPPY EATING!
