Breakfast Taquitos

Breakfast Taquitos are the perfect easy breakfast recipe, made with chorizo, or soyrizo for vegetarians, scrambled eggs & pepper jack cheese!
Cinco De Mayo is just a few days away and what better way to start the celebration than with your first meal of the day!
Breakfast Taquitos are so easy to make! You can even prepare them the night before, then bake them up in the morning, making the start to your day so simple!
I made mine with soyrizo, my favorite vegetarian meat substitute, but you can also use chorizo if you prefer!
I topped them with guacamole, queso freso, diced tomatoes and cilantro. You can also dip them in sour cream, guacamole or salsa, or drizzle with your favorite hot sauce. Really, the dipping/topping possibilities are endless!
While I made these with Cinco De Mayo in mind, there’s no way I’m letting an entire year pass before making these again! They are so delicious and perfect every week for “Taquito Tuesday” or a fun weekend brunch fiesta!
