The kids loved preparing and eating chilaquiles last year, so we brought back familiar ingredients and made a similar Mexican breakfast this week called migas (not to be confused with other variations of migas eaten in Spain, Portugal, and Mexico City where it is made with day-old bread). Mexican migas (Spanish for “crumbs”) found outside Mexico City consists of strips of old tortillas fried in a pan with eggs.
Our students can basically run the class themselves these days, and the simplicity of the recipe allowed for a couple of lively rounds of the Mexican game Lotería while we ate. Though it’s purely a game of chance, the competition was fierce and those who won were quite enthusiastic!
