Using the same pan with leftover oil, toss in your diced onion, bell pepper, and jalapeño. Sauté them for roughly 5 minutes until soft and fragrant.

Add diced tomatoes, then pour in the whisked eggs. Stir gently to mix everything. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
04 -
Let the eggs cook on medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Stir on and off until they’re creamy and just starting to set.

Turn off the heat and stir in the cheese and crispy tortilla strips. Add some avocado slices, peppers, hot sauce, or chili flakes before serving if you’d like.

01 -
Skip frying tortillas by using pre-made tortilla chips for an easy swap.

Add some cooked chorizo or another meat for a filling dish.
