Fiesta Eggs
Yield: 6 servings
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/4 cup vegetable oil
6 (7- to 8-inch) flour tortillas, cut into strips
1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium)
6 large eggs
2 cup chopped tomatoes (2 medium)
1 jalapeno chile, seeded & chopped
2 Tbsp fresh, snipped cilantro
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 ozs Colby cheese, shredded (1/2 cup)
Heat the butter & oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat until hot
Add the tortilla strips & onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until the tortillas are brown
Mix the remaining ingredients except the cheese & pour into the skillet
As the mixture begins to set at the bottom & sides, gently lift the cooked portion so that the uncooked eggs can run under the cooked portion
Avoid constant stirring
Turn the egg mixture, cook until the eggs are all cooked through but still moist, 3 to 5 min
Sprinkle with the cheese & serve
