How To Make low carb breakfast in a skillet mexican style
-
Step 1Cook taco meat. You could use chorizo instead.
-
Step 2Drizzle about 1 tbsp. of olive oil in a 12" cast iron or oven proof skillet. Brush around sides and bottom.
-
Step 3Cut tortilla's in quarters, brush one side with olive oil, place that side down in skillet overlapping to cover entire bottom of pan.
-
Step 4Spoon in cooked taco meat.
-
Step 5Add about half the grated cheese (as much or little as you like)
-
Step 6Break eggs into a bowl, add cilantro and whisk. Pour over cheese.
-
Step 7Top with remaining cheese and sliced jalapenos. Bake 350° for 25-30 until center is set. Allow to cool for at least 15 min. The cooler it is the easier it is to get out of the pan. This dish is delish cold as well.
