How To Make mexican cheese tomato & eggs bake

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet. Saute onions, peppers, chilies, and garlic, adding salt and pepper to taste. When finished cooking, turn the heat down to a simmer. Combine corn starch or flour, chili powder, and cumin with the simmering ingredients. Increase amount of chili powder if a stronger intensity is desired. Drain the juice from the tomatoes, add the sugar, and then combine with the other simmering ingredients to create the sauce.

Step 2

In a skillet, partially cook the eggs, stirring to scramble for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Brush or spray baking dish with cooking oil or spray. Cover bottom of baking dish with partially cooked scrambled eggs; then pour the sauce mixture over the eggs.
Step 3

Sprinkle evenly with cheese. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Garnish with fresh snipped chives, dried chives, or bacon bits. Enjoy!
