Migas are breakfast nachos! They are a playful twist on scrambled eggs loaded with cheese, crunchy peppers, and crushed tortilla chips. Eggs are full of protein and healthy fats for a hearty start to your day. And, this recipe is a great way to use up leftover chips—in fact, the staler, the better for absorbing all the luscious flaves.

Ingredients

  • 3 bell peppers
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1⁄2 pkg Spanish Rice Seasoning, divided
  • 12 eggs
  • 3 cups unsalted tortilla chips
  • 1⁄2 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1⁄2 cup prepared Poco Picante Salsa
  • 2 tbsp Poco Picante Salsa Mix
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 tsp lime juice, optional
  • cilantro, optional

Preparation

  1. Dice peppers.
  2. Heat oil in Sauté Pan over medium-high heat. Add peppers and 1 tbsp seasoning; stir often, until soft, about 4 min.
  3. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk eggs with remaining seasoning.
  4. Reduce heat to medium; add eggs to pan. Stir frequently until eggs are creamy and just set, about 2-3 min. Crumble in tortilla chips, cheese and salsa; stir to combine. Top with avocado, if desired.

Tips

Swap in 2 tbsp Poco Picante Salsa Mix for Spanish Rice Seasoning. Spanish Rice Seasoning offers a more mild, rounded flavour, whereas Poco Picante Salsa Mix offers something spicier.
