Crispy Breakfast Taquitos are a delicious and easy way to start your day. They're made with whole wheat tortillas that are dipped in a mixture of eggs and dairy-free milk, then cooked until golden brown and crispy. You can fill them with your favorite fillings, such as eggs, dairy-free cheese, dairy-free sour cream, salsa, chopped bell peppers, chopped onions, and fresh cilantro.
The idea for these Crispy Breakfast Taquitos came to me one morning when I was trying to think of a quick and easy way to make breakfast for my family. I had some leftover whole wheat tortillas in the fridge, and I thought it would be fun to try making taquitos with them. I started by whisking together some eggs and dairy-free milk in a shallow dish. Then, I heated some oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. I dipped each tortilla into the egg mixture, coating both sides, and then returned it to the skillet. I cooked the tortillas for 1-2 minutes per side, or until they were golden brown and crispy. Once the tortillas were cooked, I filled them with my favorite fillings and topped them with dairy-free sour cream and salsa. My family loved these Crispy Breakfast Taquitos, and I'm sure you will too!

Why It Works

The salsa adds a bit of heat and spice to the taquitos.
The chopped bell peppers and onions add a bit of crunch and sweetness to the taquitos.
The fresh cilantro adds a bit of freshness and brightness to the taquitos.
