Ingredients
  

For the Salsa
  • 1 large yellow tomato diced
  • 3 tablespoons red onion diced
  • 3 tablespoons cilantro chopped
  • 0.5 to 1 serrano pepper thinly sliced
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 0.5 lime juice from
  • 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
For the Tacos
  • 1 green bell pepper stemmed, seeded, and diced
  • 3 scallions chopped
  • 6 large eggs beaten
  • 2 cups arugula or spinach chopped
  • As needed Extra-virgin olive oil for drizzling
  • To taste Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Skillet

Method
 

  1. Prepare the salsa: Combine the diced tomato, red onion, cilantro, serrano pepper, minced garlic, lime juice, and sea salt in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Prepare the eggs: In a large bowl, combine the beaten eggs, diced green bell pepper, chopped scallions, and chopped arugula or spinach. Season with sea salt and black pepper. Mix until combined.
  3. Cook the eggs: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and drizzle with olive oil. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set but still slightly moist. This will make about 24 small egg portions for the tacos.
  4. Assemble the tacos: Warm small tortillas (not listed in ingredients, assume you have them for 24 servings). Place a portion of the cooked egg mixture onto each tortilla. Top with a spoonful of the fresh salsa.
  5. Serve immediately or wrap individually for grab-and-go meals later.

Notes

To make these truly grab-and-go, assemble the tacos completely, wrap them tightly in foil or parchment paper, and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a microwave or oven before eating.
