Recipe: Breakfast Tortilla with egg, cheese, and avocado

This breakfast tortilla is ideal for breakfast or brunch. It was Tina who taught me how to make the breakfast tortilla, and it has quickly become one of my favorite weekend brunch dishes. It’s easy to make, quick to prepare, and you can experiment with the fillings to suit your taste. The combination of scrambled eggs, melted cheese, crispy bacon bits, and fresh cilantro in a warm tortilla is simply delicious.

The breakfast tortilla gets even better with fermented chili sauce. Fermented chili sauce is a fairly new discovery for me, and I love how it tingles on my tongue, adding a unique depth and well-rounded spiciness that pairs wonderfully with the savory ingredients.
