Kick start your weekend with the Mexican inspired Breakfast Egg Tortillas.
Using Flaevors extremely versatile Charred Green Feta Sauce, these Breakfast Egg Tortillas are fresh with lime drenched tomato and cucumber salsa, crunchy bacon bits and topped with your favourite hot sauce.
Make it on one large tortilla or divide ingredients between two smaller ones, the most important thing is that you are using a corn tortilla and not one made with white flour. It’s the flavour of cornmeal that blends so well with the charred green feta sauce and lime salsa.
Charred Green Feta Sauce
This recipe relies on a batch of this sauce pre-prepared in the fridge. You could, of course, make it fresh, however, it will add an extra 50 minutes on to the cooking time which isn’t ideal at breakfast. Consider making the sauce the night before or as a fast substitute crush some feta with olive oil, lemon juice, coriander and lime juice.
