These loaded breakfast taco bowls are a fun breakfast idea and great for dinner too! They’re easy to prep ahead of time, just make sure you leave out the avocado until you’re ready to serve. Gluten-free, Paleo, Whole30 compliant, and keto diet friendly.
Eating leftovers for breakfast is something I’ve been doing since my first Whole30 about 6 years ago. Leftover dinner + eggs is still my basic go-to breakfast on busy mornings.
So, it seems only natural that at some point I would decide to make leftovers on purpose – AKA a make ahead breakfast! And what better way to do breakfast than with taco bowls? These loaded breakfast taco bowls are bound to become a favorite in your breakfast rotation!
We started out with the base for the bowls – cauliflower rice. I never “rice” my own cauliflower anymore since it’s available already prepped at the grocery store. Which makes it incredibly simple and tasty base for the bowls! I just sautéed it and seasoned with a little lime, salt, and jalapeno pepper.
Next is the beef. Once again, it’s incredibly simple, browned with my favorite Taco Seasoning from Primal Palate, salt, pepper, and a little water or broth.
Perfectly scrambled eggs, tomatoes, avocado, and pico de gallo finish of these deliciously filling breakfast taco bowls.
Fun fact – I typically do not eat scrambled eggs, BUT scrambling the eggs works so well with these bowls! The scrambled eggs reheat perfectly and mix so well with the meat, cauli rice, and salsa.
Plus, scrambled eggs make these bowls perfect to make ahead of time. Just reheat just before digging in! Make sure you add the avocado, tomato, and salsa after reheating though for best results!
These breakfast taco bowls also make a delicious breakfast-for-dinner which is always a fun treat at the end of the day! Let’s be real – taco bowls are perfect anytime and these breakfast themed ones are no exception.
I hope you’re ready for a new favorite recipe in your breakfast rotation – one that you’ll want to whip up whenever a taco craving hits! It’s time to grab your ingredients and get ready to dig in – let’s go!
