MIGAS LITE FOR 2

Migas Lite for 2 image

So much Tex-Mex food calls for lots of oil and high fat foods. This was a recipe that I found on a pack of corn tortillas. I adjusted the recipe and this is the end result. Hope you enjoy!

It is also on the TOH website: http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/Tex-Mex-Scramble.
