Tortilla Egg Scramble is one of my Top 5 favorite easy dishes. It’s so easy!
All you do is warm up some enchilada sauce in a skillet on the stovetop,
throw in some thick corn tortilla chips (my fave are these Santitas chips)
stir to coat,
and place in a bowl.
Place 1 egg + 1 egg white, scrambled with hot sauce and green onion, on top, then melt some sharp cheddar cheese over it all.
Add more green onion, homemade salsa and fresh avocado, and you are set!
I love how the tortilla chips get kind of soft in the enchilada sauce.
Remember when you were little and you’d get nachos at the ballpark or wherever? The kind the concession-stand lady would douse in that nasty, orange cheese sauce and they’d get super soft and fabulous?
This is like that – minus the funk of fake cheese. ;) Healthy, filling and totally hits the spot!

LOLthis post made me laugh!!! I’m OK with sunglasses, but not names; I can meet someone 10x but still not remember their name, it’s SO embaressing! And then you’ve met them loads so you can’t ask for their name again, so you go through life not knowing who they are…I swear if I get married,my husband will have to wear a name tag to the wedding!

I am great with faces when it comes to knowing people from television shows or movies, but in real life I’m awful. I recently bumped into someone from high school and all I managed was a “oh hey” granted they were an identical twin so I wasn’t sure which one it was…its still embarrassing.
I work as a manager of a retail store and I’ll have customers that come back to see me and expect me to remember their whole ordeal…I try I do…but honestly when we see hundreds of customers each day its hard :(

oh and p.s. when I am alone and can’t remember someone’s name I just call them a term of endearment
“Oh hi…Honey”
“How have you been…sweety?”
Works everytime ;)

I am THE worst at remembering people’s names…so bad in fact my sister and I have an entire routine down when I can’t remember someone’s name. What’s most comical is she falls right into line when she knows I am totally flaking on a person’s name. It’s great!
Sad, but great! =)
allison @ thesundayflog 06.01.2010
ahhh i always hate that problem! usually someone will recognize me when i THINK im incognito, and then i get all flustered because i wasn’t prepared. im usualy great with recognizing people, but if im trying to remember your name, chances are i will forget it! yikes!

Have you ever had chilaquiles? Your recipe sounds similar. So good!
And holy cow, how about this rainstorm?!

so here’s a question for you…how do you pick a good avocado? I always seem to pick on that’s all gross inside. I’ve tried getting them ripe and I’ve tried green and ripening them myself and I always end up with a gross one. Help!
Mara @ What's For Dinner? 06.01.2010
I love that egg scramble idea!! That may need to be on the rotation soon…
Jessica @ The Process of Healing 06.01.2010
Um yeah, totally get the whole sunglasses thing. And I can’t remember people’s names to save my life!!!
MUST TRY the tortilla chips in the enchilada sauce.. that sounds fabulous!

I’m the worst at remembering faces… and names! it takes me very, very long to learn a name!
Maggie @ Fit.Fun.Food 06.01.2010
I accidentally ignored someone who I’d met recently then seen again at a bar later that week. My only excuse is that he was wearing a hat and sunglasses the first time I saw him, but not the second! I played it off pretty well, though. Great meal! I’ve been thinking about making healthed-up nachos for a while now!

OMG, that egg scramble looks DELISH!
Yeah, I’m actually very good at remembering names and faces. Sometimes I wish I wasn’t, lol.

^^Kris — I love Karen Kingsbury!!
As for names, I’m all over the place! All of the jobs that I’ve had have required me to be good w/ names (all relationship based…) and it requires me to come up w/ random ways of remembering names. In my personal life (ie acquaintances — gym, etc.) I’m not the best. In fact, I have nicknames for nearly everyone at the gym, “Mr. America”, “Harley Couple”, etc… and then my husband knows exactly who I’m talking about when I get home.

Hi there –
I wanted to comment about getting into a good book – I get sad at the end too – have you read the Redemption Series by Karen Kingsbury? Christian Fiction – I cried on the eliptical at the end of one of them – I still feel like I “know” the Baxter Family – if you haven’t tried them – do!
Have a great day!
Kris

I used to be terrible with names….I quickly got better with them when I started teaching!!!
Lauren 06.01.2010
Wow, I wish I would have seen this a few hours ago because this would have most definitely been BFD tonight. I am so trying this next week!!
Okay, it really tastes the exact same as the brownie??? I mean, don’t get me wrong, the Pure Bars are good, but that brownie dessert you had…..oh my!!!
Have a great night girly!
Lauren @ Eater not a runner 06.01.2010
I’m terrible with names too! It’s the worst!
Amanda @ Organic Eats 06.01.2010
It’s really hard being a teacher! And, since I teach music, I often have hundreds of students. At my last school, I taught over 500 students. I hate calling a student by his/her sibling – that’s the WORST and it ALWAYS happened to me as a kid!!! Luckily, I’m getting better and quicker at learning names! :)
Cynthia (It All Changes) 06.01.2010
I’m great with names because I was a teacher and had to learn them quickly so the kids didn’t revolt.
Dawn 06.01.2010
It will get worse!! As I got a little older and worked in a large building… I would see people at the end of the long hall and not recognize them. If I saw them earlier in the day, I might recognize there suit and wave, but if not, SNUB!!!
;-) Terrible with faces and names anyway.
