Ingredients

4- 6 inch corn tortillas
1-2 tablespoon vegetable oil
8 large eggs
2 tablespoons heavy cream
Dash of chipotle pepper (or more to taste)
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese, plus more for garnish

Toppings (you choose how many)

Thinly sliced green onions
Thinly sliced radishes
Chopped tomatoes
Salsa
Cooked turkey sausage
Diced avocado
Jalapeños
Crushed corn chips
Shredded lettuce
Hot sauce
Cilantro
Sour cream

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush both sides of the tortillas with the vegetable oil and place on a cookie sheet. When oven is ready place the cookie sheet in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. When the tortillas are out of the oven top each one with ¼ cup of the Mexican cheese.
  • Beat the eggs and heavy cream in a bowl until well combined. Stir in the salt, pepper and chipotle pepper.
  • Heat the butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. When butter is melted add the egg mixture. Using a rubber spatula gently move the eggs around in the pan. Reduce the heat so the eggs don’t overcook. As the curds form keep stirring until they are just set.
  • Place the tortillas on a plate and evenly divide the scramble eggs on the top of the cheese. Then let everyone top their own with the choice of garnishes.
