Breakfast tacos are not a racial stereotype any more than toast and butter.  In Mexico, typically breakfast always includes a covered basket of tortillas, most often corn tortillas, flour tortillas are more common in the northern states of BC, Sonora, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo León and Tamaulipas. 
The main dish could be huevos rancheros,  frijoles refritos, fajitas and such.
One takes a tortilla and fills it with whatever one likes, folds it and eats it.

It is no more a stereotype than cereal and milk, or pancakes, waffles, bacon and eggs, or hash browns.

Think it's more comparable to watermelon or fried chicken. Tacos are a food that it's unwise, if not racist, to refer to a person as. Could have invoked Forrest Gumps box of chocolates perhaps. What she basically said was all Hispanics are tacos, Texas Hispanics are the nasty breakfast variety filled with runny eggs and chorizo. They are the lowest form of taco. Unwise.
