Instructions
    1.

    Make the salsa: place tomatillos and serranos in a medium Stainless Saucier or Saucepan and cover with about  1 cup water, making sure everything is submerged.

    2.

    Cover and bring to a boil, then remove lid, lower heat, and simmer until tomatillos and serranos are tender, about 15 minutes.

    3.

    Transfer to a blender and let cool slightly.

    4.

    Add garlic, salt, avocado, and lime juice. Blend well. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve at room temperature or chilled. Can be stored in fridge for up to 3 days.

    5.

    Assemble the tacos: Fill each tortilla with eggs, bacon, and cheese. Squeeze lime juice over top and finish with a drizzle of Taqueria salsa.
