    Truly an excellent recipe. We did, however, make a few updates. We scaled the recipe for two, using about a cup of tomato sauce (Contadina. To start, we sliced up about 1/4 of a medium sized onion and four good sized button mushrooms, We minced one clove of garlic and chopped 1/2 of a jalapeno pepper, with seeds, We sauteed them in the olive oil in a small pot with lid, onions first, then after a couple minutes the mushrooms, and a couple of minutes later, added the peppers and garlic for one minute of sauteing. Then we added the canned sauce and some fresh ground pepper and brought it to a boil. We added the eggs and sliced cheese and kept the heat just under medium, covering and cooking for five minutes. Finally, we served all on plates, spooning the sauce and eggs on...yes...warm tortillas. One per plate. Absolutely delicious! You can skip the jalapeno, but it really added dimension.
