Frequently Asked Questions
How spicy is Five Chile Fever and how much should I use?
Five Chile Fever is a medium-heat chili blend. Start with one light shake per taco and increase to taste. Use less if you are sensitive to heat and more if you want a punchier flavor.
Can I make these tacos vegetarian or vegan?
Yes. Swap turkey bacon for vegetarian bacon, smoked tempeh, or roasted mushrooms. Replace the egg with a tofu scramble or chickpea flour omelet for a vegan option.
What is the best way to cook the egg for this taco?
Lightly scramble or fry the egg over medium-low heat so it stays tender. For a runny yolk, cook sunny side up or over-easy and keep the heat moderate to avoid rubbery texture.
How do I warm mini corn tortillas without cracking them?
Heat them in a dry skillet for 20 to 30 seconds per side. You can also wrap a stack in a damp paper towel and microwave 20 to 30 seconds, or steam briefly under a lid. Keep them covered so they stay soft.
Are these tacos gluten-free?
Using corn tortillas usually keeps the tacos gluten-free, but check the labels on your turkey bacon and Five Chile Fever blend to confirm they do not contain gluten or cross-contaminants.
Can I make these ahead or store leftovers?
Store components separately. Keep cooked eggs and bacon in an airtight container for 2 to 3 days. Tortillas stay best at room temperature or sealed in the fridge for several days. Reheat in a skillet to refresh texture before assembling.
How many tacos does this recipe make?
The ingredient list shown is for one mini tortilla taco. Multiply the ingredients to make more tacos based on how many servings you want.
What other toppings or variations work well?
Try adding crumbled cheese like cotija, pickled onions, fresh salsa, sliced radishes, or hot sauce. Swap turkey bacon for chorizo for more heat, or add black beans for extra protein.
