You need

To buy

  • for serving flour tortillas or corn chips

From your shelf

  • one 6-ounce package Hormel jalapeno bacon

Staples

  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • half a medium onion onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 4 large eggs
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper

  1. Slice the jalapeno bacon into quarter-inch strips. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the bacon. Cook, stirring often, until the edges crisp and brown, about 5 minutes.
  2. Dice half a medium onion and mince 2 cloves garlic. Push the bacon to the side and add the onion and garlic to the pan. Stir and cook until soft, about 3 minutes, while the bacon continues to render.
  3. Crack 4 large eggs directly into empty spaces in the pan. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover the skillet and reduce heat to medium. Cook until the egg whites set but the yolks still move, about 5 minutes.

Note Swap corn tortillas for flour if you prefer. Leftovers keep in the fridge for two days and reheat gently. Serve with flour tortillas or over corn chips, or add to rice for breakfast tomorrow.
