Frying eggs is so underrated. Honestly a crispy egg and a gooey yolk is just so good. Put it on a taco with creamy cashew cream and some veggies and a squeeze of zesty lime and you are in for a real breakfast treat, or dinner treat, this recipe can be eaten any time of day.

Golden Crispy Egg Breakfast Tacos

Frying eggs is so underrated. Honestly a crispy egg and a gooey yolk is just so good. Put it on a taco with creamy cashew cream and some veggies and a squeeze of zesty lime and you are in for a real breakfast treat, or dinner treat, this recipe can be eaten any time of day.

Although most of the time I eat low carb, I have nothing against incorporating some good quality (preferable vegetable based) carbohydrates into my diet every few weeks. Enter these amazing corn tortillas.

Mexican style food often gets a bad wrap, but the truth is authentic Mexican food is fresh and healthy!

And while this recipe is certainly not authentic Mexican, the tacos are. They are 100% corn tortillas from La Tortilleria made from just corn and salt.

I’ve also added sprouts to this recipe for an interesting dose of breakfast greens. Did you know that the sprouting process increases the nutritional content! Best eaten raw, I love including various types of sprouts in to my meals, and this twist on breakfast is a great way to try them.
