Instructions

1 Warm the corn tortillas by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 30-60 seconds, or by briefly heating them in a dry skillet over medium heat until pliable. Set aside and keep warm.
2 In a medium bowl, whisk together the 4 large eggs, 2 tablespoons of milk, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy. This will create a light and fluffy egg base.
3 Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the chopped bell pepper and chopped onion, sautéing for about 5-7 minutes until they begin to soften and become fragrant.
4 Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet with the softened vegetables. Cook, stirring gently with a spatula, for about 3-5 minutes, or until the eggs are set but still moist and tender. Avoid overcooking to maintain a creamy texture.
5 Spoon the scrambled egg and vegetable mixture into the warmed corn tortillas. Top with shredded cheese and chopped fresh cilantro, if using. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
