Breakfast

Saturday mornings were made for enjoying the traditional Tex-Mex breakfast of Migas Scrambled Eggs, at a favorite Fort Worth restaurant.  Warning: once you've tried it, plain ol' pancakes may become a thing of the past.  At Chef Point Café, this dish features scrambled eggs, fried tortilla chips, onions, peppers, tomatoes, cheddar cheese served with a tortilla, black beans and hash browns. This flavorful feast is rich in history and appeals to many because of the wide assortment of ingredients.

Migas, pronounced “miyas” in means simply “crumbs” in English. Migas originated out of Spain and Portugal.  The Spanish dish often consists of old bread, garlic, olive oil and spinach.  Meats prepared in this dish vary throughout the regions of Spain but may include pork ribs, chorizo, bacon or mutton.  In Portugal, the dish is also made primarily of leftover bread but that can be substituted for potatoes.  Olive oil and garlic are a must but other possibilities depending upon the area, may include pork flavoring, tomatoes, coriander, kale, asparagus, beans and rice.  Migas in this part of the world are usually served in addition to main meals as appetizers but can also stand alone as entrees for dinner or lunch.

The morning migas served at Fort Worth restaurant, Chef Point Café, are more in keeping with the style known throughout central and southern Texas.  This regionally popular egg dish is served for breakfast and over time has developed a cult following because of its amazing taste.  Dairy lovers adore the ooey gooey cheese while spice buffs can't get enough of the fresh onions, tomatoes and peppers.  Tex-Mex fans can really appreciate the tortilla strips and beans, which make Migas Scrambled Eggs a hearty Texan treat.
