Notes

These za'atar eggs tacos are incredibly versatile! You can easily swap out the vegetables or add in your favorite protein like feta or cooked chicken for an extra heartiness.
If you don't have za'atar, a mixture of thyme, sesame seeds, and sumac can work as a good substitute.
Leftover tacos can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days; just reheat gently on a skillet to regain that softness.
