Notes

Can I use corn tortilla?

Corn tortillas don’t work well for this recipe because they tend to crack in the oven and struggle to hold the filling together.

Can I omit the cottage cheese?

Totally! If you omit the cottage cheese you can also leave the eggs whole, making it a very lazy option.
