MIGAS WITH TORTILLAS AND BEANS
This recipe, brought to The Times in 2004 by Karen Olsson as part of a collection of regional recipes published in The New York Times Magazine, comes from Juan in a Million, in East Austin. To best appreciate this Tex-Mex favorite, she writes, "the procedure is as follows: Smear the tortilla with a spoonful of the beans, pile on the migas, followed by a dollop of salsa, and tell your cardiologist to kiss your widening behind." Follow her advice, or don't. But do garnish it with a bright salsa fresca or pico de gallo, and enjoy.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper while you're at it. Scramble 8 eggs with 3 tablespoons cream/milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few twists of freshly ground black pepper. Set the eggs aside for later.
- Slice 4 tortillas into short, thin strips (see photos). Transfer the strips to your prepared baking sheet, then toss with 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil until lightly and evenly coated. Arrange them in a single layer and sprinkle with salt. Bake until crispy, flipping halfway, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the pepper-and-onion mixture. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm 2 teaspoons olive oil. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, jalapeño, garlic and a dash of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onions are turning translucent and the peppers are tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer half of the mixture to a bowl for later and return the pot to heat.
- To the pot, add 1 teaspoon ground cumin and sauté until fragrant, stirring constantly, about 30 seconds. Add the drained black beans and 3 tablespoons water. Stir to combine. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until you're ready to serve.
- Once you have your crispy tortilla strips and reserved pepper mixture ready, you can scramble the eggs. In a 10-inch non-stick or well-seasoned cast iron skillet, warm 2 teaspoons olive oil over medium heat. Swirl the pan so it's evenly coated with oil. Add the peppers from your bowl to the skillet, then whisk your egg mixture one last time and pour it into the skillet.
- Scramble the eggs by pushing the mixture around and 'round and 'round until they're about three-fourths set. Fold in the crispy tortilla strips and cheese and continue cooking until the eggs are scrambled to your liking. Remove from heat.
- Remove the beans from heat. Use a fork to mash up about half the beans, then stir in a squeeze of lime or splash of vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Divide migas and black beans into individual serving bowls/plates. Top with a sprinkle of chopped cilantro. Serve with salsa, warmed tortillas (optional) and diced avocado (optional) on the side.

Steps:
- Cut the corn tortillas into small squares, about 1½ in. wide. You can use a knife or a pair of kitchen scissors to cut them.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Once it is hot, place the tortilla pieces in the oil and fry them until they are golden brown. Make sure to use a frying pan that is large enough, in order to not overcrowd the pan. Stir and turn the tortilla pieces as needed until they acquire a golden-brown color. This step will take about 6 minutes.
- Return the frying pan to the stove and place it over medium heat. Add the chopped white onion and lightly fry it for a few seconds, then stir in the chopped serrano pepper. Keep cooking for about 2 minutes.
- Add the chopped tomato and cook for about 3 more minutes, then add the eggs. Let the eggs start to cook without stirring them yet.
- Once the egg whites start to look cooked around the edges, gently stir the eggs. Once you see the egg yolks start to cook, stir in the tortilla chips, season with salt, and gently mix them together with the eggs. When the eggs are cooked to your liking, remove the frying pan from the heat. The tortillas should still be crispy by the time you serve your migas. Do not wait until the eggs are cooked to add the tortilla chips. Remember that the eggs will keep cooking even after you remove the frying pan from the heat.

MIGAS WITH BLACK BEANS & TOMATOES
Not long ago, I had lunch with some friends in Austin at Torchey's Tacos. (If you're in Austin, Houston or Dallas, you might give these guys a try. And I might start a petition that they get a truck set up in other areas asap.) Ever since, all I can think about making for breakfast is breakfast tacos. And lunch tacos. And dinner tacos. I think I might need an intervention. Migas are a kind of taco that I've never shared before, and given my recent tacos obsession, the time has come for Migas. So, what in the world is a Migas? (Please forgive the singular-plural thing that happened there. Just work with me here.) Migas come from Spain/Portugal and are a traditional "next day" meal using leftover bread. It's popular Tex-Mex cousin/twin contain leftover corn tortillas, cut up into strips, fried up and mixed in with the eggs, tomatoes and chilies. Then wrapped in another tortilla and served alongside refried beans. When I make Migas, I use corn tortillas for the "shell"...because I just have a brain block on the concept of wrapping a flour tortilla around a delicious egg mixture that contains crunchy corn tortillas. Flour with corn...just can't do it. Corn with corn...perfection. I also leave out the hot peppers, because I know the kids would take 1 bite, drop their tongue out of their mouth panting that it was too spicy. But I'm going to include a jalapeno pepper (or hot pepper of your choice) in the recipe. Because they really should be included. Add it or don't...depending on your tongue's liking to spicy food. (For Texans -- Hatch chilies will be in stores all over south Texas soon...would be amazing cooked into you next Migas meal.) A few other ideas that could replace the black beans too: 2 cups cooked chorizo sausage, 2 cups cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage (about 1/2 lb.) or crumbled bacon. Now that we've got the what and the how I like it's out of the way, let's go to the recipe...

Steps:
- In a small skillet, heat the oil. Add the corn tortillas, one at a time, to the oil and cook them on each side for about 2-3 minutes, or until they turn darker brown and get crispy. Remove and stack on cutting board. Run a pizza cutter through them to cut into strips of chunks. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, add the chopped onion, pepper, tomatoes and black beans. Saute together for 2-3 minutes, then add the eggs. Scrambled with the veggies and beans. Once the eggs have cooked, toss in the fried tortilla strips. Spoon the mixture onto corn (or flour) tortillas. Quickly sprinkle with cheese, so it will melt from the heat of the eggs.
- Warm the refried beans.
- Serve Migas with Black Beans and Tomatoes with warm refried beans.
