    I notice that when it comes to Secret Recipe Club that I seem to gravitate towards breakfast often. I think that is because for the most part, I make my recipes on the weekend and in the morning is the easiest time for me to make a recipe, photograph, post, then eat 🙂 This month I had the pleasure of looking for recipes to make from Nicole's blog Cookaholic Wife and went with her Easy Breakfast Tacos recipe!

    Easy Breakfast Taco

    Nicole has several recipes from Eating Well on her blog and the he recipe I chose to make was a simple, quick and easy recipe from Eating Well adapted to fit what I had at home on hand.  I had corn tortillas on hand because they are lower in carbs than flour tortillas and my life has been full of low carb lately.  While I have never been a fan of the corn ones, I decided if I wanted to make tacos in the future that I would go with corn for a lower carb count.  Turns out that the way I made this taco was pretty darn delicious and I wouldn't hesitate to use a corn tortilla again!

    I also added a tablespoon of fat free refried beans to my taco just to up my protien a little more.  I didn't have any salsa on hand but I had fresh jalapeno, onion and tomato so I went with that instead of the salsa.

    Easy Breakfast Tacos

    There are several cupcake recipes on Nicole's blog and while I would have loved to have made cupcakes this month, I knew I had better not.  I will have an opportunity for cupcake making in August when we have our Open House party so I decided to save cupcakes for next month.

    I also found that Nicole has a passion for jalapeno.  I too love jalapeno and was very tempted to make the Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese.  However, my desire to not eat the bread was strong so I passed over on that one for a later time also.  Needless to say I have several of Nicole's recipes bookmarked and I will definitely go back to try some more out in my future!

      I'm an honorary group A member this week, and loving all of the delicious recipes I'm finding. I used to LOVE breakfast tacos before I developed all of my food allergies. 🙁 These look like they turned out so good Shelby.

      I like the idea for these great breakfast tacos. I would put refried beans in there too, just because they're delicious.

      Great SRC post

      I agree with Anna - I love the crispiness of your tortillas. They sound wonderful and fresh.

      These look really good! I already like corn tortillas, but the crispiness of yours make them look even better - along with that yummy filling!

      I'm glad you liked these! I'm also not a big fan of corn tortillas but have gravitated toward them since they're low carb. 🙂
