What type of tortilla is most commonly used for Tex-Mex breakfast tacos?

Tex-Mex breakfast tacos are most commonly wrapped in flour tortillas.

Breakfast tacos are especially associated with Texas, where a soft flour tortilla holds fillings such as scrambled eggs, potatoes, beans, bacon, sausage, cheese, and salsa. The tortilla is usually folded around the filling and eaten by hand.

Corn tortillas are fundamental to many Mexican dishes, but flour tortillas have a particularly strong regional identity in northern Mexico and Texas. Their soft, flexible texture makes them practical for substantial breakfast fillings.

Breakfast tacos are sometimes confused with breakfast burritos. A taco is generally smaller and folded once, while a burrito is larger and enclosed by folding the tortilla around the filling. Restaurant terminology can vary by region.
