Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet, cook the bacon until crispy, about 7-10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  3. In the same skillet, add canola oil and potatoes. Sprinkle taco seasoning and sauté for about 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
  4. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs. Once the potatoes are done, lower the heat, add bacon and eggs, stirring gently until just set, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Warm the tortillas in the microwave for 20-30 seconds to make them pliable.
  6. Spoon the egg, bacon, and potato mixture into each tortilla, sprinkle with cheese, fold, and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted and tortillas are crispy.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving with optional toppings like pico de gallo, avocado, or lime.
