migas
Scrambled tortilla dish
Migas is a dish of fried bread or tortilla pieces, varying by region.
In Spanish cuisine, stale bread is fried with garlic, chorizo, and sometimes eggs or peppers.
In Tex-Mex cooking, migas refers to scrambled eggs with torn tortilla strips, cheese, and salsa: We ordered migas and black coffee at the diner.
The word is Spanish for "crumbs."
