Steps:
- 1. Add your oil and butter to your frying pan and wait till it's hot and then add your torn corn tortillas and tater tots. Cook till tortillas are nice and crisp.
- 2. Meanwhile mix eggs, cream, chilies, seasonings all together and mix well with a fork. Pour over the corn tortillas and tatertots. Cook till done. Then plate, add your shredded cheese and let melt. Next your salsa, sour cream, cilantro, green onions and a dash of salt and pepper. Ready to eat.

LOL (I haven't made enough salsa yet to post my own recipe but when I do I'll be sure to post. This salsa that I posted was made with delicious yellow tomatoes.)
- 4. I wanted to share a picture from years ago of Lupita, my friend Mona and Me taken while I was living at her home in San Antonio, Texas. I miss them all & hope they are well.
Tips:
- To make the best migas, use fresh, high-quality ingredients. Look for fresh tortillas, eggs, vegetables, and cheese.
- If you don't have day-old tortillas, you can make your own by cutting fresh tortillas into strips and baking them in a low oven until they are crispy.
- For a more flavorful migas, use a variety of cheeses. A good combination is cheddar, Monterey Jack, and queso Oaxaca.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the migas. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Serve migas immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include salsa, sour cream, guacamole, and pico de gallo.

Migas is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a great way to use up leftover tortillas and vegetables. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
