How to Make Ma Cristina's Tortilla Eggs
- Tear 1 (6-inch) flour tortilla into bite-sized pieces.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tortilla pieces and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and crispy (about 3-4 minutes).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1 tablespoon of water.
- Reduce heat to medium. Stir in 1/2 cup of your favorite salsa (chunky recommended!). Cook for 2 minutes.
- Pour in the egg mixture and add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
- Cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are set but still slightly moist (about 3-4 minutes).
- (Optional) Stir in 1/4 cup cooked, crumbled ham or sausage.
- Remove from heat; the eggs will continue to cook slightly from the residual heat.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
