Tex Mex Breakfast Taco

Making these amazing breakfast tacos is easy and they're fun to eat and serve. Two or three make for a nice breakfast. They also make for a great brunch by allowing guests a choice of fillings, cheeses, and fresh toppings like avocado, onions, tomato, cilantro, and salsas. Soft corn or white flour tacos are pretty much interchangeable.
