About Egg and migas

Egg and Migas is a flavorful dish rooted in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine, featuring scrambled eggs combined with crispy tortilla strips or chunks, often mixed with ingredients like onions, peppers, tomatoes, cheese, and spices. Traditionally served as a hearty breakfast or brunch staple, this dish is loved for its balance of textures and vibrant flavors. Eggs provide a rich source of high-quality protein and essential nutrients, while the vegetables add vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants. However, the inclusion of fried tortilla pieces and cheese can contribute to higher fat and calorie content, depending on preparation methods. To make it lighter, one can use baked tortilla strips, moderate the cheese, or incorporate extra vegetables. Egg and Migas is versatile, satisfying, and can be adapted to suit dietary preferences while celebrating its cultural roots.
