Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup red bell pepper chopped
  • 1/2 cup sweet onion chopped
  • 12 large eggs
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 jar salsa verde
  • 12 flour tortillas
  • 2 1/2 cups shredded Colby Jack cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro chopped
  • cheese sauce
  • halved grape tomatoes, chopped fresh cilantro, chopped avocado for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Melt the butter in large nonstick skillet over medium. Add bell peppers and onions and sauté until tender, about 4 to 5 minutes. Stir together eggs and the next 3 ingredients in a medium bowl. Add the egg mixture to bell pepper mixture in the skillet, and cook, without stirring, until the eggs begin to set on the bottom, about 1 to 2 minutes. Draw a spatula across the pan to form large curds. Cook, stirring occasionally until eggs are thickened, about 6 to 7 minutes. (Don't over-stir!)

  2. Spread 2 tablespoons of salsa verde in the center of each tortilla. Spoon about 1/4 cup egg mixture over salsa and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons cheese and 1/2 teaspoon cilantro. Roll up the enchilada and place it, seam side down, in a lightly greased 13- x 9-inch baking dish. Add Cheese Sauce and remaining cheese.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until sauce is bubbly, 30 minutes. Serve with your favorite toppings.
