Notes

Heat Factor: Mild-Medium. You can up the heat by adding extra jalapeno peppers, and using a spicy hot sauce to finish. Reduce the heat by coring the jalapenos before cooking, or using bell peppers instead.

Make it a Bigger Meal. Migas is a great dish on its own, but as a variation, consider adding spicy Mexican chorizo for some added kick and flavor. You can even add in other crumbled sausage, ground chicken or refried beans to make it more of a meal.
