Delicious and filling. This breakfast kept us energized until dinner. I had to use bell pepper instead of jalapeno. Very tasty! Thanks for posting the recipe.

I also found this on The Kitchen while hoping to make a quick, savory breakfast. It was fast and we loved it. I didn't have jalapeno and just threw in a little crushed red pepper instead.<br/><br/>Served with green onion, chopped avacados, and fresh cilantro... my DH said I could make that once a week... he loved it. Thanks for posting!

I love migas, it used to be on my coffee shop menu but this morning was the first time I've had it for ages. Delicious flavor and texture but I did use bigger tortilla pieces for personal preference. Topped it with sour cream and green onions. Yummy breakfast :D. Made for PAC, Spring 2014.
