Weekend breakfasts at our house are slow, lazy and filled with all of the flavours we love. Â From eggs to pancakes to croissants there is something special about sitting down with your family over a steaming cup of coffee enjoying each other’s company. Â With twin almost 4 year olds weekday breakfasts are definitely rushed. Â A bowl of cereal, some oatmeal or a muffin on the go.
This weekend we enjoyed one of our favourite meals, Mexican Scrambled Eggs. Â A common meal in Mexico but not as common in small town Ontario. Â The ingredients are simple, the flavours divine and the results – a filling protein rich breakfast suitable for gluten free and dairy free diets.
How to Make Mexican Scrambled Eggs
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup diced tomatos
- 1/2 a jalapeño seeded and minced

Add salt and keep stirring until eggs are cooked and vegetables are mixed through.
-
Spread refried beans on tostada, top with Mexican Scrambled Eggs.
-
Serve with sliced jalapeño for garnish.
We served our Mexican Scrambled Eggs on Jalapeno Tostadas with Coffee and this recipe for Easy Churros – delicious!

Hmmm this looks pretty interesting. I love scrambled eggs and like to add in the occasional thing to change it up a bit, but this is a bit different than what I am used to. I will have to add it to the list of new dishes I need to get cracking on (pardon the pun).

We make scrambled eggs almost the same way. I use a lot of garlic, and instead of jalapeno, I use bell peppers. I also add some milk to the eggs when I whip them to make it fluffier. I would try your recipe, its interesting to have tostadas topped with scrambled eggs. Thanks for sharing.
