Cooking Steps

1

• Wash and dry produce. Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Place in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Season with salt; toss to combine. Microwave until fork-tender, 6-8 minutes. Set aside.

2

• Dice tomato into ½-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper.

3

• In a second medium bowl, whisk together eggs*, cream cheese, and ¼ tsp salt (½ tsp for 4 servings) until well combined. (It’s OK if bits of cream cheese are still visible; they will melt when cooked!)

4

• Once potatoes are fork-tender, heat a large drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Carefully add potatoes; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are lightly browned, 2-3 minutes. Add 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) to pan, then stir until melted. Pour in egg mixture; cook, stirring, until eggs are scrambled and cooked to preference, 1-2 minutes.

5

• Pour green salsa over eggs and potatoes and stir to combine. Simmer until warmed through and salsa is slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat.

6

• Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels. Microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds.

7

• Divide tortillas between plates and fill with salsa verde eggs and potatoes; top with Mexican cheese blend and tomato. Serve.

Wash hands and surfaces after handling raw eggs. Consuming raw or undercooked eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness.

Review summary

Updated on Dec 2025
  • Flavor: Many enjoyed the tasty combination, though some found it too salty or spicy for breakfast.
  • Ease of prep: Customers appreciated the quick and easy cooking method, especially for the potatoes.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding sausage, bacon, or chorizo for extra protein; some preferred shredding and crisping the potatoes.
  • Portions: Several mentioned needing more eggs to balance the potato ratio; adding 1-2 extra eggs improved the dish.
  • Texture: Some found the mixture too wet; try cooking components separately or reducing salsa for a less soggy result.

Following the instructions, the potatoes never crisped up, so they were a soft and soggy texture next to the soft eggs. And the green salsa had an off putting after taste, rather of had a red salsa. I did like the tomatoes, it added a pop of freshness.

Great flavor and also a great breakfast for supper choice. I didn't make this into tacos because I find them somewhat difficult to eat so had it in more of a hash form with buttered toast on the side. Yummy!

Great idea. Needs more eggs, I added 4 and made it 3 servings. Potatoes meh, prefer shredding and grill until hash brown.

I added an extra egg and some egg whites. I would also probably roast the potatoes next time and add the cheese into the pan so it melts. I also added chopped bacon.
