Migas With Tortillas and Beans image

This recipe, brought to The Times in 2004 by Karen Olsson as part of a collection of regional recipes published in The New York Times Magazine, comes from Juan in a Million, in East Austin. To best appreciate this Tex-Mex favorite, she writes, "the procedure is as follows: Smear the tortilla with a spoonful of the beans, pile on the migas, followed by a dollop of salsa, and tell your cardiologist to kiss your widening behind." Follow her advice, or don't. But do garnish it with a bright salsa fresca or pico de gallo, and enjoy.
