Fajitas for Breakfast

This is basically a breakfast burrito recipe, but since I didn't have burrito sized tortillas, I made them into fajitas. Burritos are more keyboard friendly, but work with what you have.



What you need:
2 Eggs, scrambled or fried with the yolks cooked
3 pieces of bacon (or a few sausage links)
1 piece of your favorite cheese
1 Fajita sized flour tortillas

**Tip** I like to use the peppered bacon so that I do not have to add salt and pepper.

Step 1. Cook your bacon or sausage. If you'd like to shorten the cooking time, buy the precooked bacon, and simply reheat for approximately 20-30 seconds in the microwave.

Step 2. Break your cheese and 1 piece of bacon into little bits.

Step 3. For this recipe, I like my eggs scrambled, which I add in a splash (approximately a teaspoon of milk). I also add in the bits of that bacon and the cheese, and beat the eggs with a fork.

**Tip** Really beat your eggs pretty hard, lifting the fork about two-ish inches each motion. This helps trap air into the eggs, making them a little more fluffy. The more noise you're making while beating...the fluffier your eggs will be generally.

Step 4. Cook your eggs. While cooking stick the tortillas in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to soften.

Step 5. Add the cooked eggs to the tortillas, and serve the bacon on the side.

Want a vegetarian variation? Try these eggs with some cheddar cheese (Swiss will work well too with the mushrooms), fresh tomato, mushrooms, and if you have some cooked potatoes, chop them up and add them in. Season the eggs with some garlic powder and paprika. Yum!
