Corn tortillas have just been doing it for me this summer. I’ve been using them non-stop. I’ve always liked them, but prior to this summer I was more a whole wheat tortilla girl.
But no longer.
To me, corn just adds a little more flavor and takes the whole taco eating experience a level higher. Not to mention they provides whole grains, protein and endless meal options!
They’re good things to keep around (or make yourself!) if you ask me.
Speaking of their ability to provide endless meal options…you might not even need them. I call these “breakfast” tacos but I’m sitting here typing this after just eating them for lunch (and I’ve also had them for dinner in the past). In fact, I could probably eat these straight for a week and not get sick of them.
Not only are they tasty, but they’re ridiculously simple to pull together.
As far as meals are concerned, in my mind, this can’t be beat. These are simple, delicious and filling which is just about all I can ask for out of my meals these days.

Oh yum!! I love arugula and avocado! Pretty much the perfect combo! 🙂
Cait says
It really is! And the egg/cheese/hot sauce addition just makes it that much better 🙂
Liz @ I Heart Vegetables says
Yum!!! Tacos for breakfast sounds like a win 🙂
Cait says
And the best part is that if you don’t get your act together in time for breakfast, they work perfectly for lunch too!
Hannah @ CleanEatingVeggieGirl says
YUM!! I totally want to make these for “brinner” sometime!
Cait says
Definitely do – they’d be perfect! 🙂
Alanna says
I also prefer corn tortillas to the whole wheat. I tend to eat more breakfast tacos or eggs in general for dinner! So easy to whip up and delicious!!
Cait says
Agreed! That’s definitely the best part about them 🙂
