Ingredients
  

  • 1-2 small corn tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
  • 2 eggs scrambled
  • 1 tablespoon green chiles
  • ¼ cup grated cheddar cheese

  • Avocado garnish
  • Pickled jalapeños garnish

  • Cut 1-2 tortillas into strips. In a small skillet over medium heat, add oil or butter along with tortillas. Cook until tortillas start to get crispy on the edges, 3-4 minutes.
  • Add in scrambled eggs and green chiles and a pinch of salt and pepper. Let cook for 30 seconds so the eggs can firm up. Then stir everything together.
  • When the eggs are mostly cooked, add grated cheese to the top and cover with a plate so the cheese can melt. Remove from heat and let sit for 30 seconds.
  • Plate migas with sliced avocado, diced tomato, jalapeños, a dash of hot sauce, and an extra tortilla on the side.

10 Minute Weekday Migas

The prep for this quick breakfast situation is pretty easy. Use canned green chilis so all you need to do is scramble a few eggs, grate some cheese, chop a tomato, slice up some tortillas and slice an avocado. You could do most of this the night before to speed it up even more.

Easy Prep!

To start the migas, add a little oil to a small skillet and add the corn tortillas. Cook them for a few minutes over medium heat until they get crispy on the edges. This is the longest part of the recipe!

You can do this even in a morning haze.

This is fast.

Let those sit for 30 seconds so the eggs firm up a bit. Then stir everything together and add some cheese! Cover the skillet with a plate so the cheese melts quickly. You can remove it from the heat at this point to make sure the eggs don’t burn.

  1. This definitely looks doable and delicious! Pinned and just checked to make sure I have the ingredients for brunch on Father’s Day!

  2. This is one of my favorite quick breakfasts. I usually add some chopped onion and jalapenos, maybe some red bell pepper, instead of the green chilies. This is also good if you have to watch your cholesterol, because egg substitute or egg whites work great.
