  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

– 8 large eggs

– 1/3 cup milk

– 2 tablespoons oil

– 2 small bell peppers, cored and sliced into strips

– 1 medium onion, halved and sliced into strips

– 1 cup chopped ham (ham steak recommended)

– 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese

– 8 six-inch flour tortillas, warmed

– 2 medium avocados, chopped or sliced

– lime wedges

– fresh cilantro

– hot sauce

Instructions

1-First, whisk together the 8 large eggs and 1/3 cup milk in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Set aside to let the flavors meld while you move on.

2-Next, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the 2 small bell peppers and 1 medium onion; season with salt and pepper. Sauté until tender-crisp and slightly charred, then remove from the skillet and set aside.

3-Reduce the skillet heat to medium-low. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, then pour in the egg mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until the eggs just begin to set.

4-Push the eggs to one side of the skillet. Add the 1 cup chopped ham to the empty side and heat through. Combine the ham with the eggs, stir in the 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese, and cook until the eggs are fully set.

5-Finally, to assemble, layer the warmed 8 six-inch flour tortillas with the egg and ham mixture. Top with the sautéed peppers and onions, add the 2 medium avocados chopped or sliced, and include desired toppings like lime wedges or fresh cilantro. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
