Рецепт Easy Breakfast Tacos
I notice that when it comes to Secret Recipe Club that I seem to gravitate towards breakfast often. I think that is because for the most part, I make my recipes on the weekend and in the morning is the easiest time for me to make a recipe, photograph, post, then eat :) This month I had the pleasure of looking for recipes to make from Nicole's blog Cookaholic Wife.
Nicole has several recipes from Eating Well on her blog and the he recipe I chose to make was a simple, quick and easy recipe from Eating Well adapted to fit what I had at home on hand. I had corn tortillas on hand because they are lower in carbs than flour tortillas and my life has been full of low carb lately. While I have never been a fan of the corn ones, I decided if I wanted to make tacos in the future that I would go with corn for a lower carb count. Turns out that the way I made this taco was pretty darn delicious and I wouldn't hesitate to use a corn tortilla again!
I also added a tablespoon of fat free refried beans to my taco just to up my protien a little more. I didn't have any salsa on hand but I had fresh jalapeno, onion and tomato so I went with that instead of the salsa.
There are several cupcake recipes on Nicole's blog and while I would have loved to have made cupcakes this month, I knew I had better not. I will have an opportunity for cupcake making in August when we have our Open House party so I decided to save cupcakes for next month.
I also found that Nicole has a passion for jalapeno. I too love jalapeno and was very tempted to make the Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese. However, my desire to not eat the bread was strong so I passed over on that one for a later time also. Needless to sa y I have several of Nicole's recipes bookmarked and I will definitely go back to try some more out in my future!
