# What You'll Need:
→ Egg Mixture
01 - 4 large eggs
02 - 2 tablespoons milk
03 - Pinch of salt
04 - Pinch of black pepper
→ Garlic & Herbs
05 - 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
06 - 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley (optional)
→ Cheese & Dairy
07 - 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
08 - 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
09 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
→ Tortilla
10 - 1 large (10-inch) flour tortilla
# Directions:
01 - Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper in a mixing bowl until thoroughly blended.
02 - Place a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat and coat evenly with unsalted butter.
03 - Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until aromatic but not browned.
04 - Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook gently, stirring with a spatula, until eggs start to set but remain slightly soft on top, about 2 minutes.

06 - Lay the flour tortilla directly onto the egg-cheese mixture, pressing lightly with a spatula. Continue cooking 1 to 2 minutes until eggs are almost fully set.
07 - Use a large spatula, or invert the pan onto a plate then slide back into the skillet, to flip so the tortilla is now on the bottom.
