Delicious Maple Glazed Bacon Tacos
This recipe features crispy bacon glazed with maple syrup, served in warm tortillas and topped with fresh ingredients. It takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 4 people.
Ingredients
- 8 slices of bacon
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 8 small corn or flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 1/4 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt (optional)

Instructions
- Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.
- Glaze the Bacon: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the maple syrup. Return the bacon to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the bacon to soak up the syrup.
- Warm the Tortillas: While the bacon is glazing, warm the tortillas in a separate pan or microwave until pliable.
- Assemble the Tacos: Place a few slices of the maple glazed bacon on each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, cheese, and red onion.
- Finish with Toppings: Add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt if desired, and garnish with fresh cilantro.
- Serve: Enjoy the tacos warm, and serve with additional maple syrup on the side if desired.
