  • Author: Dr. Josh Axe

  • Yield: 4 1x

Description

When it comes to eggs, we often just go the easy route and scramble, fry or make them into an omelette. Well, try this classic Mexican dish for a more flavorful and fun way to have eggs … and with grass-fed ground beef for a very filling and balanced breakfast.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • ½ pound grass-fed ground beef
  • ½ red onion, diced
  • 2 small jalapeños, stem removed, diced (seeds removed)
  • 2 tablespoons grass-fed cream cheese
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 large eggs, fried or scrambled

Toppings

  • 12 fresh tomatoes, diced — or use pico de gallo
  • 1 avocado, pitted and sliced
  • half a bunch fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, over medium heat, add in coconut oil and grass-fed beef, stirring occasionally until the beef is browned, about 5–7 minutes.
  2. Add in the onion, jalapeño, cream cheese, oregano, salt and pepper, stirring until onion becomes translucent and remove from heat.
  3. In a separate pan, over medium-low heat, cook the eggs as desired.
  4. Heat up tortillas in the oven at 350 degrees for 2 minutes. Try to use Paleo tortillas, organic corn or sprouted wheat tortillas.
  5. Place the heated tortilla on four plates, then spoon in the separate eggs and meat dishes. Top with fresh salsa/tomato, avocado and cilantro.
