For the Filling

Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Spread the bacon strips evenly on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for about 10 minutes.
Heat about 2 tablespoons of canola oil in a skillet and add the cubed potatoes with taco seasoning. Cook for 15–20 minutes until fork-tender and crispy.
Arrange warm corn tortillas in a greased baking dish, forming open taco shapes.
In a clean skillet, scramble the eggs over medium heat until just set but still slightly creamy.
Assemble the tacos with seasoned potatoes, scrambled eggs, and crispy bacon. Top with Monterey Jack cheese.
Bake the assembled tacos in the oven for an additional 10 minutes to melt the cheese.
Serve hot, pairing with fresh fruit or salsa.
