04 - Evenly divide the egg mixture among the tortillas. Sprinkle shredded cheeses over the eggs.
05 - Add desired toppings: scatter cherry tomatoes, red onion, bell pepper, and, if using, cooked sausage or bacon.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Everything cooks on one pan so you can actually relax while breakfast happens
  • The tortilla shells get perfectly crispy without any frying whatsoever
02 -
  • Do not skip folding up the edges of the tortillas or the egg mixture will slide right off during baking
  • Check the eggs at 16 minutes because they continue cooking after you pull them from the oven
03 -
  • Let the sheet pan cool slightly before removing the tacos so they keep their shape
  • Grate your own cheese instead of buying pre shredded for better melting
