Migas

Ingredients

Cilantro

1/4 cup, chopped

Cheddar cheese

1 cup, shredded

Salt

to taste

Black pepper

to taste

Eggs

6 large

Onion

1 medium, diced

Green bell pepper

1 medium, diced

Red bell pepper

1 medium, diced

Garlic

2 cloves, minced

Stale bread

3 cups, cut into cubes

Olive oil

3 tablespoons

Salsa (optional)

for serving

Avocado (optional)

1, sliced for garnish

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Add the stale bread cubes to the skillet, cooking until they are crispy and golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the bread from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic, diced bell peppers, and onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft and the onion is translucent.
4. In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and beat them well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Cook, stirring constantly, until the eggs are scrambled and fully cooked, about 3-4 minutes.
6. Add the crispy bread pieces back into the skillet and gently stir to combine all ingredients.
7. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the migas and cover the skillet. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Garnish with chopped cilantro before serving. Serve warm, with a side of salsa and sliced avocado for an extra burst of flavor.
