About Migas

Migas is a traditional dish with roots in Spanish and Tex-Mex cuisines, featuring a blend of eggs, tortillas, and spices. In its Tex-Mex variation, scrambled eggs are cooked with crispy tortilla strips, peppers, onions, tomatoes, cheese, and sometimes chorizo for added flavor. The Spanish version often incorporates stale bread, meats, and garlic, creating a hearty and rustic meal. Migas provides a good source of protein from eggs and other added meats, while vegetables like peppers and tomatoes contribute vitamins and antioxidants. Health-conscious eaters can use whole-grain tortillas, reduce cheese and oil, or skip the chorizo to lower calories and fat content. While flavorful and filling, both versions of migas can be high in sodium and saturated fat depending on preparation methods, making portion control important for maintaining a balanced diet. A versatile option, migas can be customized to suit dietary preferences while celebrating its culinary heritage.
