Beef Breakfast Tacos

500g Specially Selected grass-fed angus beef sausages
6 Lodge Farms free range eggs, beaten
1 tbsp The Olive Tree extra virgin olive oil
8 Diego’s street tacos
1 avocado, sliced
125g Bellino tomatoes, quartered

Method

For the green chilli dressing, whizz the ingredients together in a small food processor until smooth.
Place a heavy-based frying pan over a medium-high heat. Make a slit along the length of each sausage and remove then discard the skins.
Place the meat in the hot pan, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Cook for 10 minutes or until caramelised. Set aside.
Place a large frying pan over a medium-high heat and scramble the eggs in the olive oil until slightly undercooked, as they will carry on cooking. Season and set aside.
Chargrill or pan-fry the tacos and place onto a board. Top with the sausage, egg, avocado and tomato. Drizzle with the dressing and serve with coriander, chilli slices and lime wedges.

Optional: Try using chicken or pork sausages.
