Mexican Migas Breakfast Casserole

    Whenever my granddaughter Mikaela spends the night, she likes to help me make breakfast.  Here we are making some a migas breakfast casserole. I got this recipe from a Texas cookbook I picked up at an airport about 4 years ago.   I tripled the recipe and put it in a 9 x 13 instead of cooking it in a skillet.  I've made this several times,  and everyone likes it! 



Mexican Migas Breakfast Casserole 


1.  Prepare vegetables:  
(1)  Dice up 1 onion.
(2)  Chop up 2-3 tomatoes.
(3)  Open a can of green chilies.
(4)  Chop up about 1/4 cup of cilantro..

2.  Cut 8-9 corn tortillas into strips.

3.  In a frying pan:  Warm up 3-4 T of coconut oil.  Then add the onions and sauté 3 minutes; then add the tomatoes and corn tortilla strips and cook 2 to 3 minutes.



4.  Meanwhile whisk up eggs:  Whisk up 6 eggs and add 2 cups of milk, then add 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. of black pepper.  Stir in the can of green chilies and cilantro.

5. Combine ingredients:  Put onion mixture in the bottom of a 9 x 13 glass pan.  Pour the egg mixture over the top.

6.  Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until an inserted knife comes out clean.
