This is a very simple recipe that uses common ingredients that you most likely already have on hand such as:
- Eggs
- White onion
- Jalapeño

Is it spicy?
Yes, it is spicy because it contains jalapeño. If you don’t want it too spicy I suggest removing the white membrane and seeds from the jalapeño.

Chop your veggies. Also have your eggs cracked into a bowl and beaten.
Heat up the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Then add the onion and jalapeños. Stir often. Cook them until softened. This will take about 5 minutes.
Then add the tomatoes and cook for about 3-4 minutes.
Add the eggs. Stir often with a spatula until eggs are set. This will take about 7 minutes. Salt to taste.
