Taco Tuesday Breakfast

It seems as though I’ve been retired for ever. Hard to believe it’s only been seven years. Seven wonderful years. In just a few more years, all this bliss will come to an end. Why? Hubby’s retirement.

Don’t get me wrong. I love him very mush. Weekends together are nice. Travel vacations are nice. Three day weekends, and he begins to get under foot. We tried a Staycation once. It was nice, but I didn’t get a whole lot accomplished around the house. While we did sleep in our own bed at the end of the day, we were out and about nearly every waking moment.

So what does all this have to do with Taco Tuesday Breakfast? Right now, getting creative in the morning is something reserve for Sunday Mornings. Before I know it, creative breakfasts are going to become a part of my daily wheelhouse. It’s one thing to suggest a bowl of cereal on a Saturday morning, when we have so many other things on our plate. It’s going to be quite another to suggest Cereal six days a week. That will get old fast. Gee, I can hardly wait for Hubby’s retirement. That way I get to cook and clean and then cook again, only to clean again every day! I hope he develops a few hobbies. I like to write, to try new recipes, to go for walks with my camera. He likes to watch sports. Which is fine, except he’s not a true sports fan. Football, yeah. NASCAR, you bet. All the rest and he’ll pass. So he’s not enough of a sports fan to not be under foot.

Truth be told, as much as I complain, I thank the Good Lord every day that I have such a wonderful husband under foot. Love you.

Johnsonville Breakfast Tacos
6 (6-inch) Flour Tortillas
12 Breakfast Ling Sausages
6 Eggs
Salt to taste
Black Pepper to taste
1/2 tablespoon Olive Oil
3 tablespoon diced Nacho Jalapeño Peppers
1 Roma Tomato
1 Avocado
6 tablespoons Mexican Cheese Blend
6 tablespoons Sour Cream
6 tablespoons Hot Salsa

Warm oven to 200-degrees. Lightly spray tortillas with cooking spray. Wrap in foil, place in the oven to warm.

In a skillet with a tight-fitting lid cook sausage with just a splash of water. Cover skillet, let sausage steam until all the water has evaporated. Remove lid, let brown, turning frequently. Transfer to a baking dish, cover and keep warm in the oven with the tortillas.

In a large bowl whisk eggs. Season with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Once warmed, add oil and swirl pan to coat bottom. Pour eggs into the skillet. Scatter diced Jalapeño over the eggs. Allow eggs to cook until the bottom just begins to set. Scatter jalapeños over the eggs. Fold eggs toward the center of the skillet, then scramble with a fork until fluffy. Remove from heat, cover to keep warm.

While the eggs cook, dice tomatoes and avocados.

When ready to assemble, fold a warm tortilla in half to create a taco shell. Fill wit a spoonful of scrambled eggs, 2 sausage lings, cheese, diced tomatoes, avocado and a tablespoon each of salsa, sour cream and cheese.


As a body is one though it has many parts, and all the parts of the body, though many, are one body, so also are we in Christ.
