Ingredients
  

  • 4 small flour tortillas soft, for layering
  • 6 large eggs beaten
  • 1/2 cup milk whole or any preferred type
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt adjust to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper for seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder optional, for extra flavor
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika adds warmth and color
  • 1 cup shredded cheese cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your choice
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon or ham chopped, optional
  • 1/2 cup bell peppers chopped, for color and crunch
  • 1/4 cup green onions chopped, for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil to grease the baking dish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with butter or oil.
  • Layer the tortillas in the dish, overlapping slightly to form a crust.
  • In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until well combined.
  • Sprinkle cheese, cooked bacon/ham, bell peppers, and green onions over the tortillas.
  • Pour the egg mixture evenly over the toppings, ensuring everything is coated.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the eggs are fully set and the top is golden brown.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes, slice, and serve warm. Garnish with extra green onions if desired

Notes

  • Customize It: You can swap the cheese for feta, mozzarella, or a dairy-free alternative. Add mushrooms, spinach, or jalapeños for extra flavor.
  • Make It Crispier: For a crunchier base, lightly toast the tortillas in the oven before adding the egg mixture.
  • Storage & Reheating: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes.
  • Meal Prep Friendly: This dish can be prepared the night before and baked fresh in the morning for an easy breakfast.
  • Serving Suggestion: Pair with fresh salsa, avocado slices, or a side of sour cream for added flavor.
