I always thought my grandmother invented this, until one of my friends told me about a dish she had at a Mexican restaurant for breakfast. I have since seen it, and had it, at several restaurants. Some call it Migas. In any case, it is fast, easy, and oh so good! I have made variations adding veggies, herbs, etc., and I have substituted tortilla chips too. It was all delicious! Don't be afraid to experiment! How ever you make it, just make sure you have enough egg mixture to cover everything else. The eggs should make up the larger portion of the dish. This is simple, but big on flavor! Enjoy!
