  2. Heat a skillet over medium and add the oil. Evenly pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, stirring continuously to scramble the mixture. When the eggs are almost cooked through, gently stir in the cheese and mix throughout. Remove from heat.
  3. Place warmed tortillas on a plate and top each with 2 tablespoons of the potatoes, 2 Tablespoons of the eggs, and your garnishes of choice!
