  • Pro chef Saúl Montiel from Cantina Rooftop and home cook Lorenzo are swapping recipes and hitting the kitchen to start the morning right with breakfast tacos. We provided Lorenzo with all the ingredients necessary to make chef Saúl’s over-the-top $248 taco recipe, sending only $15 worth of materials back the other direction. Could our all-star home cook rise to the challenge or did chef Saúl’s breakfast tacos rule the day?
