Tex Mex Migas

     

This post was created in partnership with GreenPan. All opinions are our own.

In our search for flavorful and simple meals, we’ve stumbled upon a killer brunch recipe that I know we’ll be making for years–and probably for weeknight dinners too. It’s quick and it uses items we almost always have on hand: eggs, tortillas, salsa, and feta cheese (or queso fresco). It’s also a one-skillet meal, so the kitchen doesn’t end up a complete mess. Really, it couldn’t have more going for it — unless you’re not a Mexican food junkie like we are! We created this festive, healthy recipe to help GreenPan celebrate its 10 year anniversary of providing healthy, eco-friendly nonstick cookware.

Migas are traditionally a Spanish dish to use up old bread: make it into crumbs and fry it in olive oil, with a bit of chorizo sausage. I knew this dish from studying abroad in Madrid, but wasn’t clued into its Tex Mex counterpart until recently. The Tex Mex version uses old tortillas or tortilla chips instead of bread; they’re mixed with eggs and veggies into a delightful scramble. We almost always have old corn tortillas on hand, so for us this is a perfect clean-out-the-refrigerator weeknight meal! To keep our Tex Mex migas simple, we simply chop the tortillas into pieces and add the scramble, and then add salsa to the eggs for maximum flavor and no chopping

This recipe is made in one skillet, and here we’ve used our new healthy nonstick cookware: a  GreenPan skillet. Traditional non-stick cookware can potentially release toxic fumes when heated, but ceramic is a new non-stick alternative that is made of natural materials and non-toxic. The manufacturing process is a bit better for the Earth as well (see this post for more). GreenPan is a company that pioneered this technology 10 years ago.

To celebrate, we created this recipe, and last week we gave away a Rio turquoise 12-piece cookware set! Congratulations to our winner, Autumn (@thehappiestummy)! The demand was so great that if you missed the giveaway, GreenPan has decided to provide another offer: a promo code for 20% off the Rio set! Just click here to order and enter ACOUPLECOOKS20. The code works for 20% off the item price and cannot be combined with any other offers. Free shipping is provided for orders over $50, and the offer is good until May 29, 2017.
