Savory
Eggs on Tortillas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup sliced leek or sliced
green onions with tops
1/2 cup seeded and chopped sweet red pepper
6 large eggs
1/3 cup milk
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
4 (7-inch) flour tortillas, warmed
Salsa, optional
Additional freshly grated Parmesan cheese, optional
Thinly sliced orange, optional
Thinly sliced avocado, optional
Thinly sliced sweet red pepper rings, optional
- Heat oil in omelet pan
or skillet over medium heat, cook leek and red pepper until vegetables
are tender but not browned. In medium bowl, beat together eggs,
milk and 2 tablespoons cheese until well blended. Pour into skillet
over leek. As mixture begins to set, gently draw an inverted
pancake turner completely across bottom and sides of pan, forming
large soft curds. Continue until eggs are thickened and no visible
liquid egg remains. Do not stir constantly.
- For each serving, top
one warmed tortilla with 1/4 of the cooked eggs. Fold tortilla
in half, then half again. Top with salsa, if desired. Sprinkle
with additional Parmesan cheese, if desired. Garnish with orange,
avocado and pepper, if desired.
Makes 4 servings.
