I took the advice of the reviewers and added a little cheese to the eggs, served the eggs on a tostada topped with salsa and a side of refried beans – simple and good

I have been eating this all my life I am 68 years old. Always a huge hit with the family on Christmas morn.
David Tapia
Yum. This is an easy and tasty recipe. It was especially nice served with pico de gallo and avocado. I’ll be making it again.
Adrian Dunn
I haven’t had good migas since I moved from San Antonio. These were simple and delicious!
Michael Wilkins
Increased the egg:tortilla ratio to 1.5:1. Spread grated cheese on top. Let sit a couple minutes for cheese to melt.
Angela Norris
Nice spin on scrambled eggs! We enjoyed it for Cinco de Mayo brunch. I only used 4 tortillas for 6 eggs because we’re curbing the carbs, and I’ll probably use 3 next time.
Richard Smith
Very nice. As per the suggestions, I used 1 tortilla per egg and ensured that I fried the tortillas until just starting to crisp. Served it with grated cheese and salsa. Will certainly add this to my regular breakfast offerings.

We grew up eating Migas. We’d sometimes eat just plain migas but sometimes we’d add fried potatoes, or chorizo, or diced ham. Always lots of onion. Great breakfast.
David Thompson
I grew up eating Migas too. Always loved them. Quick easy breakfast. You can also add green chilies to them as well. Yum , yum.

We added some pickled jalapenos and carrots. I liked this version where the tortillas are torn. Most recipes I’ve seen say to cut them into strips. These were easier to cook and eat. Thank you for the recipe.

I sauteed one chopped jalapeno with half of a yellow onion in two teaspoons of corn oil with a little butter in a separate pan. I only used 9 yellow corn tortillas. I added a few dashes of cumin to 6 large eggs and whisked together. I added the eggs in the pantry with the extra crispy tortilla strips , I spread the onion and jalapeno on top then I added 1 diced Roma tomato. I let the eggs set before I flipped sections. I then sprinkler quesadilla cheese on top and mixed in. At the end I sprinkled chopped cilantro on it and removed from pan.

Topped with pico de gallo what’s not to like about this? One of my go to breakfasts.
William Jenkins
One of my favorite egg dishes. I use 1 egg for each tortilla. Other than that the recipe stays the same.
Clinton Meyer
Soooooo Simple, Soooo Easy. I used Rottella tomatoes w/ green chilis as topping, dab of sour cream,pinch of cheese, and the kids wiped it out. Keep it Simple, dont use Ketchup,it just not the same. Thanks.
Rachel Ramirez
Oh childhood memories! I like more tortillas than egg. I sauté some onions before adding the egg, add a splash of Enchilada sauce while cooking, and grate smoked Gouda on top when nearly done. Smoked Gouda has a bacon-y taste to it without the bacon! Top with a bit of ketchup, avocado and sour cream or Labne. Dish really hit the spot this morning.
Timothy Miller
first time I followed recipe instructions. and I liked it. it had a great taste. Next time I make it I will add a couple of things like onions, and a little salsa or enchilada sauce.
Pamela Fernandez
This was really good! We were looking for something different to make for a light supper. We us
Jennifer Parker
I’ve made this recipe before but I was not sure of the ratio of eggs to tortillas. This ratio came out perfect! I cooked diced onions, red, and green bell peppers on the side it was delicious.
Patricia Norton
Basic & fast, like migas should be. I would just add some rotel while the eggs are cooking.
Dan Edwards
I always fry the corn tortilla pieces crispier, sprinkled with dry spices like chile(cayenne or chipotle), garlic, and cumin. Push the pieces to one side of the pan and then add the beaten eggs to the open side, cook til almost done and then mix together with tortilla pieces. Love adding any leftover meats including chicken, taco meat, or chorizo. Diced fresh onion, cilantro, tomato, jalapeno tossed on finished dish adds more flavor and crunch. Also try fresh veggies like corn off the cob or zucchini to ‘stir-fry’ right in wonderfully. Have some just waiting for my skillet…
