Breakfast Tacos with Steak

If breakfast tacos weren’t something we already adore, add steak, and you have one incredible concoction you can serve for a hearty breakfast or weeknight dinner.

This recipe is easy to customize with different cuts of meat, and you can even stretch it by adding black beans for a heartier and filling breakfast on a budget.

Ingredients

I use fresh-cut roast beef from the deli section, but you can use leftover pot roast, skirt steak, or flank finely sliced, and the results are nothing short of AMAZING. Then, you’ll need eggs and fresh or frozen fajita veggies. I also include black beans to bulk up the filling, but it’s optional.

How to Make Steak & Egg Breakfast Tacos

Here are the three steps you’ll need to follow to make steak breakfast tacos quickly and with no fuss:

  1. Cook
    Saute the fajita veggies and the sliced roast beef in a large skillet for about 8 to 10 minutes until tender.
  2. Scramble or sunny-side up
    I'm a total sucker for runny egg yolk, so I usually cook my eggs for this recipe over easy.
  3. Set up
    While the eggs cook, warm the black beans in a small saucepan. Once done, assemble the tacos and enjoy!

Best Toppings

The steak and egg taco filling is pretty hefty, but we always save room for our favorite taco toppings like queso fresco (similar texture and flavor to Cotija), pico de gallo, Mexican sour cream, or fresh jalapeño, if you like the heat.
