Let’s dive in!

Ingredients & Tools You’ll Need

Alright, let’s gather everything we need. For this recipe, you’ll want some biscuits-store-bought works great, but if you’re feeling ambitious, homemade is always a win. We’ll also need some bacon, because let’s be honest, everything is better with bacon!

Eggs and potatoes round out the filling, and don’t forget the queso for that creamy, melty goodness. I go heavy on the cheese here-because who doesn’t love a gooey cheese pull?

How To Make It

Now, before we dive into the cooking, let’s chat about how we’re gonna pull this off. We’ll start by cooking the bacon and using that glorious bacon grease to prepare our eggs and potatoes. This step adds that extra layer of flavor we all crave.

Once everything is ready, we’ll smash the biscuits and get them crispy-this is when the magic happens!

Preparation

First things first, let’s get that bacon cooked! In a skillet over medium heat, toss in your bacon and let it sizzle away until it’s nice and crispy. I usually set the cooked bacon aside on some paper towels to drain, keeping that bacon grease in the pan.

While the bacon is cooking, you can chop up your potatoes into small cubes-this helps them cook faster. Feel free to season them with your favorite spices; I love a bit of garlic powder and paprika for that extra kick.

Next, crack those eggs into a bowl and whisk them up. Once the bacon is out and the grease is hot, add your potatoes to the skillet. Cook them for about 5-7 minutes until they start to get tender, then toss in the eggs.

Season everything to your liking-it’s all about making it your own!

Cooking

Now it’s time for the fun part! With the potatoes and eggs cooking away, grab your biscuits. Use a burger press to smash them down gently-this creates the perfect base for our tacos.

In the same skillet, add a bit more grease if needed and cook the smashed biscuits for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they’re golden brown and crispy. You want those edges to be nice and crunchy!

While those biscuits are cooking, heat up your queso in a separate pot or microwave until it’s nice and warm. Once everything is ready, it’s time to assemble your tacos. Spoon the egg and potato mixture onto your crispy biscuits, drizzle with queso, and top with crumbled bacon.

Serving & Variations

These Smashed Biscuit Tacos are best served right away while they’re still warm and crispy. Pair them with a side of fresh fruit or a simple salad for a well-rounded meal. If you want to mix it up, try adding some sautéed veggies or swapping out the bacon for sausage or even a meat-free alternative.
