What You Need

4
thick slices turkey bacon (4 oz.), chopped
1
medium baking potato, diced (1/2-inch)
8
EGGS, beaten
1/2
cup pico de gallo OR chunky salsa
1/2
cup shredded smoked Cheddar cheese (2 oz.)
6
flour OR whole wheat tortillas (8-inch), warmed, OPTIONAL

Here’s How

  1. COOK bacon in large nonstick skillet over medium heat until edges begin to brown. POUR OFF drippings. ADD potato; cook and stir until potato is tender and browned and bacon is crisp, 6 to 8 minutes
  2. POUR eggs over mixture in skillet. As eggs begin to set, GENTLY PULL the eggs across the pan with an inverted turner, forming large soft curds. CONTINUE cooking - pulling, lifting and folding eggs - until thickened and no visible liquid egg remains. Do not stir constantly.
  3. STIR IN pico de gallo; heat through. SPRINKLE with cheese. SERVE with tortillas, if desired.
