Ingredients

Scale

6 medium flour tortillas
6 large eggs
1 cup shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese (mixed)
1 cup diced bell peppers (mixed colors)
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the onion and bell peppers in a tablespoon of oil until softened (about 5-7 minutes).
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, cumin, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture into the skillet with the vegetables and cook until just set but slightly runny; remove from heat.
Grease a baking dish and layer one tortilla at the bottom. Spread half of the egg mixture on top followed by a layer of cheese. Repeat layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with cheese on top.
Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until golden brown on top. Serve warm.
