Fry an egg, melt the cheese, and warm your tortilla all in the same pan. Add your favorite toppings–like salsa, jalapeño pepper slices, cilantro, and green onions–and enjoy a great tasting breakfast, done in a flash. Of course, you can repeat, as many times as you like, if you have company.

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 0.25 teaspoons taco seasoning , or to taste
  • 1.5 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese , divided
  • 1 flour tortilla , 6 to 7-inch

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat, and swirl the pan to coat the bottom evenly.

  2. 2

    Carefully break egg into buttered skillet and cook until egg white is opaque and egg is firm enough to turn, about 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Turn egg over, being careful not to break yolk; sprinkle with taco seasoning and about half of cheese.

  4. 4

    Gently place tortilla over egg and cheese, and cook about 1 minute. Using a silicone egg turner, flip the egg and tortilla, as one.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle remaining cheese on top of the egg, and continue cooking until the egg is done to your liking and the tortilla is warm and toasty, about 2 minutes.

  6. 6

    Slide tortilla and egg to a serving plate and serve warm.
