Easy GF Migas

Gluten free migas for quick breakfast or lunch

Migas are the lovely Texan dish I first enjoyed in Austin at SXSWi. Here’s my quick and dirty rendition. This can easily be made vegetarian and gluten-free. This recipe is for one. Double or triple as necessary.

Recipe

2 eggs
1 tbl. of milk or water
2 corn tortillas
1/4 cup of salsa I prefer Herdez Salsa Casera for its freshness.

Extras
Add on any of these for extra deliciousness
chopped flat leaf parsley
black olives
grated cheddar
sour cream
bacon
sauteed zucchini
caramelized onion
peppers

Heat some butter, oil, or *ahem* bacon fat in a skillet. Tear up the tortillas into roughly 1 inch pieces and fry until crunchy. Scramble the eggs together with the milk and add to the pan. Stir until cooked through. Turn out onto plate and garnish with toppings to your taste.

  1. I so love Mexican food. With a little help this can be ‘veganized’! Sending it to my gal! ;D

What's this all about?

Feeding yourself in some kind of sane fashion is a challenge, especially if you're only cooking for one or two. My mantra is to use as few ingredients, pots, pans, and utensils as possible. The vast majority of these meals will be weeknight wonders, taking between ten and twenty minutes. I subscribe to Organics to You’s box ‘O wonderfulness. If you also subscribe, we’ll likely have the same stuff in our fridges to work with.

I live in Portland, OR (the finest city on earth) and do interface design consulting.
