HOW TO MAKE WEIGHT WATCHERS BAKED BREAKFAST TAQUITOS

This is a recipe you can double or triple and keep in the fridge all week long for quick breakfast for the whole family! Taking these as a snack is also a good idea.

STEP ONE: SCRAMBLE THE EGGS

First preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Next grab a baking dish and spray it with nonstick spray.   Then set it aside.

Go ahead and scramble your eggs if you haven't already done that.

STEP TWO: MAKE FILLING

Microwave the corn tortillas for 1 minute to soften them up.

Mix together the scrambled eggs and remaining ingredients to make the filling.

STEP THREE: FILL TORTILLAS

Spoon about a tablespoon of filling mixture onto the bottom edge of a heated corn tortilla.

Wrap the corn tortilla tightly upward around the filling. 

Place the seam side down onto the prepared baking dish.  Keep up this process with the remaining corn tortillas and filling until you get all the tortillas filled and rolled.

STEP FOUR: BAKE

Bake until taquitos are crisp. This usually takes about 12-15 minutes. Serve hot!

These are great served with salsa…which is zero points!

EASY RECIPE MODIFICATIONS

There are lots of easy modifications for these breakfast taquitos. I personally will leave out the onion and add more spinach or pepper.  Using the diced jalapenos is a must for me because I like them spicy.  

Be careful about adding cheese, sour cream, etc. because they will really increase the points for each taquito.

BAKED BREAKFAST TAQUITO SMARTPOINTS

So this entire recipe has 23 Freestyle SmartPoints based on the ingredients I used.

It is important to grab the 6 inch corn tortillas…because the 8 inch are higher in points.

When I divide the recipe by 10…it is 2.3 SmartPoints or 2 Freestyle SmartPoints per taquito.  That isn't bad at all!!  Dip this in some zero points salsa and it is a great snack too.
