For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the egg mixture. Feel free to substitute different types of cheese, such as Gruyere or Monterey Jack. To prevent a soggy crust, you can pre-bake the tortilla crust for 5-7 minutes before adding the filling. Serve warm or at room temperature with a side of fresh greens or a dollop of sour cream.

May 24, 2025The tortilla crust got a little soggy, but I think brushing it with butter beforehand will help next time.
