Recipe: Easy Migas Recipe

Easy Migas Recipe is my go to recipe when I want a hearty, flavourful and quick brunch. What I like about this recipe is that it I can choose to add vegetables or make a simple one with just onion tomato and tortilla chips. Or make it wholesome with beans, corn, meat of your choice. The first time I made it, a simple version was tried out. Over time I added some more ingredients.

What Is Migas?

When it comes to Spanish or Portuguese style Migas, stale bread is used. With the Mexican version torn stale corn tortilla are added to the scrambled eggs. The Tex Mex cuisine takes a step further on the more easier side and uses tortilla chips. I save the broken tortilla chips that no one wants to eat. And it all goes into the Tex Mex version of Migas. Migas is the Spanish word for crumbs. Serve it with a topping of salsa, avocado, beans, corn, cheese or mix it all in.
