Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a foil-lined baking sheet and place strips of bacon on it. Bake for about 10 minutes until crispy.
  2. In a skillet, heat canola oil over medium heat. Add potatoes and sprinkle with taco seasoning. Sauté for 15-20 minutes until tender and lightly browned.
  3. Arrange soft corn tortillas upright in a baking dish. Warm them briefly until pliable.
  4. In a bowl, whisk the eggs and scramble them in a skillet over medium heat until just set, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Chop the crispy bacon into bite-sized pieces. Assemble tacos with sautéed potatoes, scrambled eggs, and bacon, topping with cheese.
  6. Bake the assembled tacos in the oven for 10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with pico de gallo, avocado slices, or sour cream.
