In Texas, you might see this dish called migas. It is a classic egg dish that traditionally makes good use of stale tortillas. We have streamlined the process a bit by using store-bought tortilla chips. This dish makes a wonderful brunch offering but would also be perfect for a weekend supper with black beans and rice.
Ingredients
-
Non-stick cooking spray
-
3 cups corn tortilla chips (such as Tostitos®)
-
8 eggs
-
2/3 cup half and half
-
2 scallions, thinly sliced
-
1 (4 ounce) can green chilies
-
1 cup shredded pepper-jack cheese
-
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
-
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
-
1 cup salsa (such as Muir Glen®)
-
1 avocado, chopped
-
1/3 cup finely chopped cilantro
-
hot sauce
Instructions
-
Coat the slow cooker crock with cooking spray and add the tortilla chips to the crock in an even layer; set aside.
-
Whisk the eggs briefly in a medium mixing bowl. Stir in the half and half, scallions, green chilies, cheeses and pepper until mixture is blended. Transfer the mixture to the crock.
-
Cover and cook 2 1/2-3 hours on LOW (or 1 1/2 hours on HIGH). The casserole is done when the center is cooked through. Let the egg bake rest, uncovered, for 10 minutes before serving.
-
Top each portion with salsa, avocado, cilantro and hot sauce.
