Ingredients

1 avocado, diced

1 large plum tomato, diced

1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped (optional)

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, plus leaves for topping

Juice of 2 limes

8 large eggs

Kosher salt

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

2 bell peppers (any color), sliced

1 Vidalia onion or other sweet yellow onion, halved and sliced

1 3/4 cups shredded monterey jack or pepper jack cheese (about 6 ounces)

8 6-inch flour tortillas

Directions

Gently toss the avocado, tomato, jalapeno, chopped cilantro and lime juice in a medium bowl. Whisk the eggs with 1 tablespoon water and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a separate bowl. Set aside.
Melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell peppers, onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Remove the vegetables to a plate using a slotted spoon. Add the eggs to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until almost set, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cheese until melted.
Warm the tortillas as the label directs. Divide the scrambled eggs, sauteed vegetables and avocado mixture among the tortillas and top with cilantro leaves.
