What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

Tex-Mex migas (not to be confused with Spanish migas) are made from tortilla strips that are cooked with scrambled eggs and salsa.
1 cup cherry tomatoes, half chopped, half sliced
1 yellow or white onion, chopped finely
1 handful fresh cilantro, washed and chopped
salt and pepper, to taste
8 corn tortillas (more or less, depends on size and taste), cut into narrow slivers
4 small jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
6 large eggs
1 dash hot sauce, or to taste
3 tablespoons milk, cream, or half-and-half, as needed
1 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or to taste)
1 diced avocado
sour cream (for garnish)
First, make a fresh salsa by taking half of the chopped tomatoes, onions, and jalapenos and mixing it with the cilantro and salt and pepper to taste. Set this aside.
Scramble your eggs with the milk, cream, or half-and-half and the hot sauce and set aside.
Warm the oil in a large pan on medium and gently fry the tortilla strips. Once the strips are a golden brown, remove from oil on a plate covered with a paper towel to drain. Now, add the remaining onions and jalapeno to the oil and saute until soft. When these are soft, add the remaining tomato. When the tomato is soft, drain any excess liquid/oil and return the pan to the stove.
Now, pour in your egg and scramble with the vegetables. When the egg is still a little liquidy dump in your cheese and fried tortilla. Once everything is combined and the cheese has melted, serve immediately topped with your homemade salsa and cubed avocado. Add a dollop of sour cream and you're good to go. Yum!

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
