A simple, popular, and easy to customize breakfast dish or appetizer.
- 8 eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 cup shredded Jack & Cheddar cheese
- 3 10" flour tortilla, cut in quarters (pie-shaped)
- 6 green onions, sliced
- ¾ cup cooked meat (bacon, sausage, ham)
- ½ cup diced green chiles
- salt & pepper to taste
- optional: diced bell pepper, cilantro, spinach, artichoke hearts, asparagus, whatever else you want to add
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin pan and press a tortilla quarter into each muffin cup to form a cup shape.
- Crumble or dice the meat and distribute among the tortilla cups.
- Add the sliced green onion, any other vegetables you choose, and about a half tbsp green chiles to each cup.
- Beat the milk and eggs together, add salt & pepper if desired (often not needed if using ham, sausage, or bacon), and pour into each tortilla cup.
- Top each cup with about 1 tbsp shredded cheese.
- Cover with a sheet of aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. If you want crispy tortilla cups, remove the foil for the last 5 minutes.
- To remove each burrito bite, use a small rubber spatula and gently loosen. Top each with diced tomatoes, green onions, or cilantro and serve.
