On medium heat, warm up a non-stick pan and let the butter melt completely until it shines.

Lay one tortilla flat in the pan and sprinkle a good layer of cheese on top, ready to hold your toppings.

Place your cooked eggs gently on the cheesy tortilla, spread avocado slices over them, and add the rest of your cheese on top.

Put the second tortilla on top, let one side turn golden brown for a couple of minutes, then flip it to crisp up the other side while the cheese melts beautifully inside.

Move it to a cutting board, cut into wedges, and dig in while it's hot and gooey.
