Method
 

Preparation
  1. Scramble the eggs in a pan until they're soft and glossy.
  2. Crumble the tofu and cook with turmeric, garlic powder, and salt for vegan tacos.
  3. Cook and chop the bacon, or choose any breakfast meat of your choice.
  4. Lightly mash the beans to make them easier to fill into the tacos.
Assembly
  1. Warm the tortillas to make them flexible.
  2. Spread a thin layer of mashed beans or cream cheese in the middle of each tortilla.
  3. Add a compact strip of scrambled eggs or tofu on top of the base.
  4. Sprinkle cheese over the eggs to help bind the filling.
  5. Add additional ingredients like diced peppers or green onions.
  6. Fold in the sides first, then roll from the bottom up to create a burrito shape.
Freezing
  1. Cool tacos for 5-10 minutes before wrapping.
  2. Wrap each taco tightly in parchment or paper towels, then in foil.
  3. Place in a freezer bag, remove excess air, and label with date and filling.
  4. Freeze flat in a single layer, then stack once solid.
Reheating
  1. For microwave, heat taco on a paper towel for 45-60 seconds, flip, then heat an additional 20-30 seconds.
  2. For skillet, unwrap and warm on medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side.
  3. For air fryer, heat at 350°F for 6-8 minutes from frozen.
  4. For oven, wrap tacos on sheet pan at 350°F for 15-20 minutes from frozen.

Notes

Let eggs cool before wrapping to prevent soggy tortillas. Use small to medium tortillas for easy folding.
