Breakfast is good anytime of the day. Eggs are my go to comfort food when I need a breakfast, lunch or dinner that is tasty, satisfying and easy to prepare.
I used Del Real Foods Seasoned Shredded Beef for this recipe, but you can easily substitute Carnitas, Grilled Chicken, Barbacoa or another one of their meats. Their meats are fully cooked and already seasoned, so it only takes a moment to heat them up in the pan.
Adding tortillas to this scramble turns it into a one pan meal that is easy on the clean up, too. Feel free to use stale tortillas in the recipe as it will taste just as good.
My family enjoys the authentic Del Real Foods meats. Since I’m a vegetarian, I leave out the meat for mine and pour on extra salsa. The Salsa de Molcajete Roja has a smoky flavor that goes well with the eggs.
