Breakfast Sausage Tacos with Pineapple Salsa

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Who’s ready to chow down on breakfast sausage tacos with pineapple salsa? It’s smoky, tangy, and sweet all in one tortilla and it’s THE taco of the day.

While most of the breakfast tacos in my Taco Tuesday Cookbook have eggs, this is an egg-free option that will satisfy any craving!

I don’t know about you but my favorite part of these Breakfast Sausage Tacos is how little time they take to make. In less than 10 minutes, you have a full-course meal in the palm of your hand.

Are Breakfast Tacos Healthy?

Let me start with… breakfast tacos are naturally healthy! For real, they don’t need much help, the most basic breakfast tacos consist of healthy ingredients like corn tortillas, eggs, beans, veggies, meat and cheese.

See, nothing but fresh, good things here!

Sausage Breakfast Taco Ingredients

For these breakfast tacos, you’ll need four simple ingredients: 

  • Breakfast sausage patties: use turkey for a leaner option or pork. 
  • Baby spinach: a great alternative to lettuce for breakfast tacos.  
  • Tortillas: your favorite flour or corn tortillas. 
  • Pineapple Salsa: a sweet-tangy salsa that brings out the spices in the sausage, or you could opt for regular salsa. 

You’ll find the full ingredient measurements in the recipe card below.

How to Make Breakfast Tacos with Sausage

Set a timer and watch yourself make these breakfast tacos in 5 minutes or less! 

  1. Prep
    Chop the spinach and warm the breakfast sausage according to the package directions. 
  2. Warm the tortillas
    A crucial step for good tacos! Use the oven or microwave to warm the tortillas until they are pliable. 
  3. Assemble and eat
    Sprinkle spinach over each tortilla, and top with breakfast sausage and pineapple salsa. Fold and take a bite!

The Best Breakfast Taco Ideas

Breakfast for dinner is my thing and when it comes to tacos I don’t hold back.

Have you seen the Black Bean & Queso Breakfast Tacos or Steak and Egg Tacos– oh. my. goodness! Steak and veggies in a corn tortilla and topped with a fried egg So. Good.

But these Sausage & Pineapple Salsa tacos are in a league of their own. Contrary to my other breakfast tacos recipes, this one doesn’t have eggs but instead brings the breakfast sausage to center stage. I love the smoky, spicy sausage paired with fresh and tangy pineapple salsa.

How to Make Pineapple Salsa for Breakfast Tacos

First, you start with classic pico de gallo, add chopped pineapple and ta-da! You have Pineapple salsa ready for tacos, salads, wraps, and anything else you can think to eat it with.

I recommend making it up to 2 days beforehand to cut back on kitchen time come Taco Tuesday. On nights like this, it’s time to sit back and enjoy time with family, friends, and tacos.

Full recipe directions, details, and all things tacos are in the Taco Tuesday Cookbook. If you need more taco goodness in your life go check out my Youtube Channel, where we are celebrating Taco Tuesday for an entire year!
