Egg Taco: a simple breakfast treat you family will love.

This recipe is a very tasty breakfast meal that is easy to make. tacos are a key staple in Texas. I have grown fond of them during my time at Fort Hood. My family have grown to prefer them over a breakfast sandwich. I have seen them with sausage, egg or even smoked Brisket. The best breakfast tacos are the simplest and they are a great addition to any meal on the go and do not have to be limited to breakfast. I chose to use Oliverio pickled jalapeños and habanero jack cheese. I did not add meat, but you could early replace some of the egg with one or two meats.
