This amazing migas recipe is a great way to change up your breakfast routine although I’m not gonna lie I totally make these for dinner every now and then. They’re absolutely delicious and insanely easy to make!

There’s nothing better than a simple, humble and yummy meal. And that’s exactly what this migas recipe is.
It’s also very flavorful. I like to garnish mine with raw diced white onion and cilantro and it gives it such incredible flavor! I can’t eat this dish without it. I also like to add a little of my salsa macha to add even more amazing flavor and spice.

How to make migas
Beat some eggs in a bowl. Set them aside. Grab a stack of tortillas.

Cut them into squares.

Heat up oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the tortilla strips and toast them until they’re a golden color. Make sure to move them around often so they don’t burn. This will take around 10 minutes.

Add some butter to the pan and swirl it all around.

Once the butter has melted add the eggs to the skillet.

Move the eggs and tortilla strips around constantly until the eggs are cooked through. Season with salt to taste.

Serve and garnish the migas with diced onion, cilantro and salsa macha.

Another thing I love about migas is that they’re so inexpensive. So they’re perfect for families on a budget.
If you’re big on Mexican food then you most likely already have the ingredients needed to make them on hand.
