I was born on a ranch 40 miles south of Sonora in '71. There is no taco blasphemy in my opinion. There's what you can eat off a truck bed or a 5020 so you stop being hungry and then there's what you eat at the dinner table. If I got migas and I need to keep working, then shovel that greatness into a flour torilla!

I worked in Crane Texas for a few years back in the 70's and early 80's and where I met my late wife. I miss the Pecos melons and my wife. Probably the very best in the country. Thanks for bringing back good memories mi amigo. I make migas quite often.

So Cal born & raised, never been to Texas but I grew up on migas & carne gisada. Mom was from Alice TX & Dad was from Donna. My wife is from Italy & she'll often ask me to make migas for her, she's hooked. Thanks Arnie for the awesome content...I can't make migas as good as my mom or grandma lol

"I don't understand how people can eat tortilla with tortilla". Bro. Do we have the same father?

As a Cajun, the highest compliment that I can pay this gentleman, is that I would like to cook with him.

Man....migas! I always thought it was just a local chicano breakfast that no one else ate but Mexicans in our town Saginaw, MI. Then I grew up a little more and realized it was a huge Texas thing. And we have a huge from Texas origin there. So, we eat that delicious Tex-Mex style Mexican food that blows a lot of other Mexican food away flavor wise and we like it saucy and cheesy there too! My wife's Puerto Rican and I changed her life breakfast wise when we introduced her to Migas con salsa and Sunday morning Barbacoa tacos with sliced avacado! Got the side eye on a taco for breakfast.....till that first bite! Lol! Love the throwback breakfast!

Migas takes me back to my childhood. The woman that took care of me as a child used to make it. It's so good. Right now I'm actually making the chili con carne recipe from Tasting History using some beef from a Zebu my friend killed.

I'm from McAllen, and I have been making and eating (and loving) migas since I learned to cook. I recently visited a vegetarian restaurant in Frederick, MD called Cafe Nola, and imagine my surprise when I saw migas on the menu. I had to try them, and I have to say, when I took that first bite, I knew I was eating some of the best migas I ever had. What a pleasant surprise. It made my day.

Adding chili con queso to your migas will take them to another level!

Mexican/Tex-Mex is so localized. I grew up in San Antonio and have roots in South-Central Texas. The migas I learned to make are done in one pan. Corn tortillas cut or torn up in to prices, cooked in butter, before they get crispy and then add the eggs.

Mr Arnie migas is my go to breakfast dish and Im born and raised in Pecos Texas so cool that you grew up In pecos on a farm

Now I know after all the years. The Mexicans that work for me for years, others in there family have the Taco trucks where we worked. Fed us breakfast and lunch. I remember eating that as a taco. So good. I'm making it tomorrow morning but with some leftovers pork chops.

hahah yes I do.. so delish.. i remember my dad making migas.. if we did not have corn tortillas he would use his favorite FRITOS.. omg.. I make it like that too because my husband loves Fritos..lol.. but I like it with fried corn tortillas, onion, tomato and jalapenos in a homemade flour tortilla..

You can tell Arnie loves cooking for/and taking care of his love. You can just tell.

My son (19) loves it in a flower tortilla.

Our TEXMEX recipes are our favorite and I love that you are sharing how you both prefer your MIGAS at home. There's no way we aren't moving back to South Texas soon. The West Coast makes nothing as good as true TEXMEX for sure brother. Haters gonna hate. But that's truth!

Very nice meal. Nice recipe. Nothing beats a seasoned iron skillet. By the way. Mine are over a 150 years old. My great grandmothers. From Poland. My family Mexican, Cherokee, and European. Me, a kitchen manager, in a mexican restaurant for awhile. I can make masa flour tortillas, by hand. Better than store bought. I add a little sprinkle of sugar. Just a difference. Learned that over 50 years ago.

My all time favorite Mexican food breakfast! If I could eat it every day I would. I’m 66 and I ate it for the first time 3 years ago. I feel so cheated that I didn’t know about this delicious meal before then. Now I have to make me some tomorrow morning. And yes, the homemade flour tortilla is a must have with these! And of course, your delicious breakfast salsa.

Growing up my mom made them all the time so delicious. Now I make it for my family and my sons love it. So the next generation is still loving them!!!❤️

As a Mercedes girl…. I didn’t discover migas until I moved to Austin (La Reyna). One of my all-time favorite dishes. Then moving on to Arizona found many different influences on Mexican food (New Mexico, Mexico & Native American). Arnie you are right…. ain’t no wrong way. It’s what you want & how you like it. Regionality plays a huge role in cuisine. As does necessity. Yep…so if I wanted migas….it was DIY. And yes, one day I made a taco filled with migas. Never knew anyone else who did so. Necessity. Now back in Texas (north) my only complaint is lack of fresh green chiles. Road trip to New Mexico for Hatch & Colorado for pueblos. Love your channel!

Hi Arnie! My husband and I love your videos! Awesome to hear you were from Pecos. We were raised in Ft. Stockton and of course love Pecos cantaloupe!

Loved pecos cantaloupes. They were the best! Great recipe. I love migas from torchies.

My grandma always called it migas so I did too. Everybody tells me it's chilaquillas. I still call it migas!!!! Love ur content man!!!!

Tex-mex food is the best. I may be biased since I’m from Texas but I’ve traveled many states and over many oceans and nothing beats the delicious fusion of Texas and Mexico ❤❤❤❤

Just found your channel and man I love it! I love the relationship you and your wife have. I hope to have that with my wife when we are your age. Thank you and keep cooking mi amigo!!

You are one of my favorites on KZfaq. Love your enthusiasm! One thing I think would be cool is if you could put ingredients or recipe in the description? Would be easier for us to follow your recipes after watching. Other than that thank you!

Good job. My favorite breakfast. The frijoles....to die for ❤

Tortilla in Tortilla is the best. Love Migas. Easy to make. 🇲🇽🌮🤠 Love your videos. Coming from Houston, Texas.

Thank you for this easy to follow recipe. I made this for my family and it was a big hit. My son who never eats new food, didn't hesitate and he loved it. The cheese made it extra yummy. 😋

My Grandma would fry the tortillas in bacon grease, just enough for 2-3 servings. I think I'll make some for supper tonight.

These look delicious! Growing up my dad used to make Migas with Julio’s chips to add an extra punch. Maybe not as traditional but always amazing

I eat migas ( crunchy) with flour tortillas all the time lol. I like to throw in the miga chips in 1st then the raw egg. This allows the egg to stick to the migas. Cooked in high heat and constantly folding the ingredients together. This way, when you eat it you always have eggs with the tmigas and they don't separate. So every bite has egg.

I had the same reaction the first time I had a migas taco. Tortilla in tortillas??? But then the first time I had a migas taco from Austin's Veracruz, it all made sense....

Thank you thank you so much for all these videos ❤ I remember my bio dad making this amazing food all the time in New Mexico before he and my mom separated when I was 3 it was a part of his culture when he was young (my grandparents on his side were Mexican immigrants rip to them) I am now having to learn how to cook this wonderful food from mine and his childhood on my own my mom and grandma are white and really don’t know how to make Mexican food like he did and I haven’t seen him in person visit since I was 6 we call but it’s hard to teach your daughter to cook over video call I live in Wyoming and him in New Mexico and I hope next time I visit my moms sister down there I can see him❤️💔

I absolutely love your channel. I can't imagine how good the food is at your family cookouts.

" I don't measure oil temperature, I can just tell when is ready " ... Arnie is real chef . I too eyeball when cooking, mistakes sometimes produce incredible results

Arnie that looked delicious. Crazy good in fact! Thanks for sharing Sir !

If I could like this video thousand times I would. I love this video because I did the same thing when I was a kid. My dad side of the family is Mexican so I can remember either going to Mexico or having breakfast at home we would make eggs. I would cut up the corn tortillas and fry them first and it made the best breakfast ever. Bringing back good memories man!!!😊

I've been working the oilfields in Southwest Texas for a few years now and LOVE the Tex-Mex restaurants in the area. When I go back home to Missouri, I like to try to recreate the dishes I've tried. Your channel popped up on my feed and I immediately subscribed. Awesome Migas recipe. In fact, gonna do that for supper tonight. Thanks.

Now THAT is a breakfast taco. Nothing better. 🎉

This is such a crazy coincidence for me! I've been on a strict diet for two weeks and have just been eating eggs with homemade salsas for dinner. Just this Monday I started getting tired of the eggs because there is no texture, so I cut up some corn tortillas and put them in the air fryer to crisp them up, then I mixed them in with the eggs as they were cooking, and I've been doing that all week. I never even knew that was a thing until I saw this! 😁

From the south of Texas when we go on long drives those tacos are the number one for us!!

I used to have no idea that migas were such a localized food. It was only when I moved away that I realized what a hidden gem this dish is. I still make it for my family, and love to throw in whatever leftovers I have in my fridge. I usually cheat and just use bagged tortilla chips. It's a great way to use up the little bits at the bottom of the bag.

I love your videos so much that I come back and rewatch them multiple times, even just for background noise. Thanks for sharing your recipes~!

Oh yea, Pecos Texas! I remember the haydays of all the farming in the Pecos, Barstow, and Coyanosa Tx areas!

Those HEB Tortillas are delicious, especially the butter ones.. 🤤🤤🤤

That looks delicious I love beans and migas👍😀I use too make migas a lot when my son was little because it was easy and cheap to make now I gotta make some with refried beans😀

I am from Aguascalientes Mexico. I am not sure if this concept existed in the times of your dad but, yes in some states of Mexico, we make tortas de tamal,.tota de chilaquiles, torta de enchiladas, etc. I have eaten tacos de fideo. So I am sure taco de migas is also as delicious. Thanks for your recipe.

I always order my migas con huevos with chorizo and cheese with flour tortillas. Definitely my #1 goto!

I recently tried Migas... I used 2 tortillas, just ripped w hands, fried in frying pan w some oil & butter... Then added eggs abd scrambled em in, added shredded cheese & Verde sauce.. Was freaking delicious.

I cut up my corn tortsfry them with a little cooking oil in a non stick pan with a little onion and when I see good color on the torts I add the egg because I want the egg to stick to as much of the torts as possible. I also use cheese sometimes but a mexican blend and then normally eat papas fritas with them.

I just ate lunch before watching this video, and I am literally hungry again! I know what I'm making for breakfast this Sunday.

Ooooo I've never deep fried the tortillas like that for migas, just chilaquiles. I usually shallow fry them in a skillet with onions until browned and then scramble the eggs in. I'll have to try this method too!

Arnie! That looks freaking FANTASTIC!!!! Love the Mexican spoon with just scrambled egg dishes and a side of salsa. Thank you for your recipes!!

Arnie thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and culture, it really adds to the recipe.

When we get our bushels of roasted green chili, we have a big gathering to peel and freeze the peppers for year round access. Migas with fresh roasted Mirasol peppers onion and eggs and calabasitas with zuchinni corn and peppers. Fine eating on those days.

😋 so good Asi Es Como Mi Mom Hace Los Desayunos.. Tortillitas Con Huevo..💯👌🏻

I have made a few Batches of your beans…. Oh man soooo good. This last batch I added a bit more hickory bacon and added a small amount of diced carrots. BAM. Best bean & bacon soup ever. Thank you very much sir.

I make breakfast nachos with basically those same exact ingredients ! I like to add some fried chorizo as well. Yummm

I Love migas your way most of the time and with chorizo egg and cheese as well so delicious!

Love the personal stories you add! Looks delicious!

Mexican here; I do migas on a flour tortilla! Salsa, pickled onions, jalapenos and a bit or crema!

Country style cooking is awesome. That looks great. Cheers, Arnie! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️

No manches! I've been making this for over 30 years. First time I had it was on the rachito as a kid using old tortillas and fresh eggs. I didn't know this dish had a name until recently. When I make it, I let some of the tortillas be limp so they better absorb the egg. I also add the tortillas at the very beginning, turning everything off when it's 3/4 done. I then add cheese, diced onions, salsa, crema and cover it for about 10 mins so the cheese melts and the eggs just cook. I'll have to try it as a burrito, I'm sure its fire!

I grow up eating Miagas to this day I’m 65 I make them and my hubby love it

Hey der! Watching you fry the migas reminded me of a recipe my mother used to make: Texas Frito pie. I didn't realize that Frito chips are basically migas! Good because the price of chips is cray cray these days! Writing this from Flathead Lake, Montana but I will be back in Texas for the winter! Cheers and have a great day and try and stay cool in Texas! Whew too hot for me in the summer!

Your videos and your food are an inspiration.. thanks for sharing them with us!!!

Arnie I eat the migas in flour tortillas….best ever con salsita papa. Saludos my friend desde Eagle Pass, TX.

Yes! Finally real south TX migas a la mexicana! Why would anyone order anything other than a fresh maiz tortilla? Tortilla with tortilla.. You forgot the smooth verde salsa at the end.. your mama is AMAZING best tacos in the world and that is so true!

Yes brother! From one west texan to another!! Loved this recipe ❤

Migas has been my favorite breakfast for some time. Being a Gringo most !y friends don't know about migas but im introducing it as fast as i can and everyone loves it......

Pecos Texas, my buddy I grew up with his parents lived there and he goes back each year in Sept for some hunting. I have never been there but it was fun to hear you say you grew up there. I bet your families know each other. I will argue that we have some of the best tacos in EAST TEXAS hahaha, Love it and just messing with you sir. Keep up the great videos, I love your channel and I find inspiration watching you and your channel. I can't get enough of great food. Have a blessed week. Dale

Just got your OG blend. It’s amazing! The smell alone sold me. It’s perfect!

Best thing about Texas is MIGAS!! Love your channel Arnie!

My family moved to California’s Central Valley from south Texas in the 60’s to work the fields. They brought tex mex cuisine with them so I grew up eating migas every Sunday morning. I was shocked when most of my other Mexican friends whose family had either came from Mexico or had always been in California didn’t know what they were. This video brought back a lot of happy childhood memories for me thank you.

I FREAKING LOVE THIS GUY. I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN TEXAS, BRINGS BACK MANY MEMORIES.

Migas is my all time favorite breakfast im first generation Arizona all my elders from south texas it's somewhat rare to find Migas in Arizona beside with family the restaurants it's always chilaquiles cool but not the same

Your migas taco reminds me when I was a teenager working at Don Carlos Mexican restaurant in Corpus waaay back in the early 90s. Whatever fits in a taco is fare game! 😂

I haven't had migas in a long time. When I lived in Galveston, I'd go to La Estacion or Santa Fe (TX) to El Valle or Senor Frog on Saturday and Sunday mornings for their breakfast. Now that I live in Beaumont, nobody is open for breakfast unless it is a chain restaurant and those aren't as great as homemade Tex-Mex kitchens. That's what makes me miss home. For being so early to rise around here, nobody eats a good hearty Tex-Mex breakfast. It's a shame.

i love the way you always emphasise doing what you prefer with the ingredients! 😁

Arnie I'd love to see your take on a Mexican street corn recipe as a side dish.

Thank you for your video, when I make my miigas I add chorizo or sausage, roasted garlic, caramelized onions and cheese

I made the Mogadishu a La MEXICANA but I used red bell pepper instead of the Serrano pepper. Delicious

Thanks for the great memories my mom use to make migas for us every weekend and I have continued that with my sons and they absolutely love

Arnie, don't know if you've done this one yet...? Milanesa de res con blanquillos con llema. 2 sunny-side-up eggs, with a breaded Mexican chicken fried steak. Its a favorite in Nuevo Leon along with Machacado con huevo. Also show folks how a simple guacamole doesn't need to have a damn vegetable salad in it to be delicious. Just 1 Serrano chile in the molcajete, ground-up, then the avocado. Sal, and a squeeze of fresh lime.

Arnie, I’m with you’d dad; I can’t imagine eating tortillas on a tortilla-doesn’t make sense! The beans look delicious, though! Do you have a cookbook showcasing all your delicious recipes? I would definitely buy one!

Born and raised in Harlingen, now living in Missouri. We love migas in la casa Garcia!

best way to eat migas con huevo is in a gordita with a migas con huevo y queso taco on the side, with a plate of migas a la mexicana with beans and papas. could eat it every day!

my grandma made me migas every weekend growing up,but she would add some kind of meat anything she had bacon weenies or sausage,then i would put ketchup over the top and eat it with a fork loved those weekends and morning cartoons to go with it

oh yeah, migas en tortilla de harina...tortilla en tortilla! orale!

I'm a bread guy, no matter what kind. I have been known to make a sandwich with 2 slices of left over pizza. Bread, no matter what, can be stuffed, or topped with whatever you have!

Looked great. Always eaten migas with flour tortillas

Crystal City, TX native here….but I live in Kansas City, MO… 🤤🤤🤤 keep bringing these videos coming, my Brother. 🤘🏼

If i were sitting at your table my mouth would be watering and I'd be rubbing my hands together like, "This is gonna be DELICIOUS! 😋

Guilty as charge! Always eat my migas with tortilla de harina y una saliste 🔥

Arnie I also taught my wife how to cook 😂 they will never accept it, but hey, maybe that’s why they love us when we cook for them.

One of my favorite breakfasts❤❤❤❤

I didn't know these were called migas. My mom always made them for breakfast whenever we had some left over tortillas. I might be biased here too but Salvadorian tortillas are where its at!

One of my favorites from my family that I never see at a single restaurant

Ohhh hell yea!!!!! Looks like something I'd make for sure!! YOUR WAY MY FRIEND FOR SURE!!! and with salsa of course. And they ain't just for breakfast I'll tell ya. 🤗🤗. (Cheese, is like butter, bacon.you can't go wrong with those items!!. God bless my friend. Keep it going senor🙆‍♀️🤠💗
