Notes
Tip: You can add a protein like scrambled eggs or black beans for a heartier breakfast!
For an extra kick, feel free to add some diced jalapeños or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes while sautéing the kale. You can easily substitute the kale with spinach or Swiss chard if you prefer. These tacos are best served fresh, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
To reheat, simply warm them in a skillet over medium heat until heated through. Enjoy them with a side of salsa or hot sauce for added flavor!
