For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of cumin or chili powder to the egg scramble. Feel free to customize the salsa with your favorite additions, such as diced jalapeños or bell peppers. If using real eggs, be careful not to overcook them, as they can become rubbery. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for added richness. This scrambler is also delicious served in warm tortillas for a TexMex breakfast taco!

Follow The Directions
01
Step
6 mins
In a medium saucepan, gently warm the salsa over medium heat for approximately 1 minute. Add the tortilla strips and 1/4 cup of the chopped cilantro. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tortillas soften and absorb the salsa's flavor.
02
Step
10 mins
While the salsa simmers, heat the olive oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add half of the diced red onion, the minced garlic, and the dried oregano. Sauté for approximately 5 minutes, or until the onions become translucent and fragrant.
03
Step
8 mins
Sprinkle the onion mixture with the Mexican-style seasoning blend. Pour in the egg substitute (or beaten eggs) and gently scramble until cooked through but still slightly moist. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
04
Step
1 mins
Remove the skillet from the heat and carefully incorporate the warmed salsa and tortilla mixture into the scrambled eggs. Gently fold to combine all the flavors.
05
Step
1 mins
Serve the TexMex Scrambler immediately, garnished with the remaining diced red onion and fresh cilantro.
