Keyword: Migas Tex Mex Breakfast

Servings:

4 eggs
2 corn tortillas
1/2 cup crumbled cottage cheese 60 g.
2 teaspoons vegetable oil 9 ml
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
For serving: chopped cilantro, diced peppers (like jalapeños), diced tomatoes, diced red onion

Prepare the Tortillas: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Cut the corn tortillas into small pieces or strips. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle the tortilla pieces with one teaspoon of vegetable oil and sprinkle with taco seasoning. Toss to coat evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the tortilla pieces are crispy and golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside.
Scramble the Eggs: In a bowl, crack the eggs and beat them well with a fork or whisk (sprinkle with salt or taco seasoning). Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a teaspoon of vegetable oil.
Combine Eggs and Tortillas: Once the oil is hot, add the baked tortilla pieces to the skillet and beaten eggs. Stir continuously with a spatula until the eggs are cooked through but still moist.
Add Cheese: Sprinkle the crumbled cottage cheese over the eggs and tortillas. Gently fold the cheese into the mixture until it starts to melt and become gooey.
Serve: Transfer the Migas Tex Mex Breakfast to serving plates. Garnish with chopped cilantro, diced peppers, diced tomatoes, diced red onion, and chopped parsley.
