Baked Spanish Eggs
3 Corn tortillas cut into 1" squares
2 T squares olive oil
2 med Onions quartered and thinly sliced
2 Cloves garlic minced
1 med Green pepper diced
2 med Tomatoes diced
6 egg substitute beaten or original called for 6 whole eggs
3 tbl skim milk or lowfat milk
1 oz green chiles chopped
1/2 tsp Ground cumin
1/2 tsp Dried oregano
2 tbl minced fresh cilantro or parsley (To 3 tb)
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Heat a large skillet. Toast the cut tortillas
on the dry skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until they are
crisp. Transfer to a plate to cool. Heat the oil in the same skillet. Add the
onions and saute over moderate heat until translucent.
Add the garlic and pepper and saute until the onion turns golden and the peppers
soften. Add the tomatoes and saute for another 2 to 3 minutes, just until they
soften a bit. Combine the beaten eggs with the milk in a mixing bowl. Stir in
the mixture from the skillet, the tortilla bits, and all the remaining
ingredients.
Oil two 9-inch pie tins and divide the mixture among them.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until set and golden on top. Let stand for 10
minutes before serving, then cut into wedges to serve.
