I learned several things in the process of making these:
- I really need to learn how to take good pictures of food. That looks way more disgusting here than it did in real life!
- I don't like cilantro. Everyone else I've heard say they don't like cilantro thinks it tastes like soap. I don't think that, but I just don't like it! I guess I do like it in one circumstance. I like fresh salsa. I know there is cilantro in that, but I guess the other flavors are so strong that it is not too prominent for me.
- I do not like the veggies in something to be a totally different texture from the rest of the dish. This recipe says not to cook the peppers and onions too long so that they are still a bit crunchy, but I will cook them until they are much softer next time.
- I like migas with an equal number of tortillas and eggs. The first recipe I tried had twice as many tortillas as eggs. This one has twice as many eggs as tortillas. I think right in between would be perfect!
I fully recommend this recipe! I will make it again for sure.

Oh good, because I saw that recipe on her website and was scared to try it because I was traumatized by Tina's.
ROTFLOL. Okay, I wasn't really traumatized. I think you hit the nail on the head with them: too many corn tortillas for the egg content.
You're right about your picture taking. That, I hate to say, looks a bit like vomit. :) Don't you have a macro button on your camera? It's usually a flower. Use that, get close up, don't use a flash.
Good tips. I do have that setting on my camera. I'd try another picture of this, but it was all gobbled up too fast! I halved the recipe, by the way, lest anyone who looked at it thinks that me and my small family gobbled up 10-12 eggs worth of migas in a very short time...
But tonight I am making enchiladas and I will try it on pictures of those. So good to have a friend who knows how to use a camera better than me. Come to think of it, you also know how to sew better than me, bake better than me, conceive girls better than me... Fortunately, I am not easily discouraged! :)
Uh...you make boys better than me.
Plus, I don't know that I know how to sew better than you. I was just today admiring those elephants you sent Rachel and Lily. They are so cute! And so professionaly-made looking. I really like them. I probably like them more than the girls do.
Well, you both sew better'n me, AND take better pics than me, I'll wager. ;) And it is obvious I haven't had much luck in the boy making department either! LOL
I have to say eggs and tortillas in one dish does not sound yummy to me. Which may be the reason I have never heard of these. (I prolly stuck my fingers in my ears and said lalalalalala) ;)
ROTFL! You're so funny, Lawanda.
Oh, Lawanda, you should try it anyway. It is quite tasty. Mmmm, Mexican food. Is there anything better on God's green earth???
