Tortilla Egg Breakfast

Whip this up for a weekend breakfast or have a salad with it for a light dinner idea.

Ingredients:

1 tbsp vegetable oil

2 tbsps finely chopped yellow pepper

5 thin slices of tomato

3 eggs

Salt, pepper, smoked paprika, oregano to taste

1 cup shredded mozzarella 

1- 8" flour tortilla 

Fresh chopped chives and basil

Salsa or hot sauce (optional)

Heat the vegetable oil in a medium sized frying pan to medium high heat. Add the yellow pepper and cook 2 minutes, then add the tomato slices and cook another 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Beat the eggs with salt, pepper, smoked paprika and oregano and pour over the tomatoes. You can change up the seasonings to whatever you like in your eggs. Let it cook 1-2 minutes then lay the tortilla flat on top.

Cook the egg until set enough to flip. Take a wide spatula and turn the egg over so the tortilla is in the pan. This was a little trickier to do than the TikTok videos let on (at least for me!)  Anyways, once you have it flipped, top with cheese and chopped basil and chives.

Then fold in half.

Cut into wedges and serve hot.

A few drops of hot sauce really hit the spot!
