Family-Favorite Breakfast Tacos
Start the day off right with these tasty and easy Breakfast Tacos. Filled with hash brown potatoes, sausage, eggs, and cheese this breakfast meal will quickly become a family favorite.

I don’t even know when the first time our family had these breakfast tacos, it seems like they have been a part of our menu forever. It’s probably the most requested meal for breakfast or dinner. There isn’t anything fancy or special about them; they are just so yummy. The sausage we use is seasoned with hot pepper and other seasonings but we have used name brand sausages as well as store brand and it’s all good!
Whether you use homemade hash browns or frozen from the store, it’s all good. This is a simple recipe and maybe that’s why it’s our favorite. While some of us like to roll them up burrito-style, filling the shell and eating them taco-style is preferred by others.
I’ve teamed up with #OurFamilyTable to share our favorite breakfast recipes with you. It’s a delicious assortment of recipes, and let me tell you – I can eat breakfast foods for any meal of the day! I’m excited to try these recipes out on my family. Be sure to check all the recipes out at the end of this post.
Tips to Make this Recipe:
Typically, I have a bag of frozen diced potatoes on hand, but not always. When I don’t I dice up a few russets, or baby red potatoes to use. Be sure your dice cuts are small, so that the potatoes cook quickly and brown nicely.
After cooking your sausage, you want to drain it to remove as much grease as possible. Once I drain the meat, I set it on a paper towel lined plate to remove more grease while the potatoes are cooking.
Sometimes, we like to add other fillings like diced tomatoes, leftover roasted broccoli, or diced jalapenos.
Be sure to use a skillet or pan that will hold everything and leave room to mix it all up.
Freeze them! I love the fact that you can roll them up burrito-style and then freeze them. Make a double batch and freeze them for quick morning (or dinner) meals. Just pop in the microwave and reheat.
