Asian-Style Breakfast Tacos for Busy Mornings

2 eggs make 3 tacos using 6-inch tortillas. This may not be an authentic Mexican breakfast taco, but this is my own easy Asian-style version!

I like to have breakfast before leaving the house, so I hope this simple recipe helps your family enjoy breakfast on busy mornings, too.
