For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the egg mixture or use a spicier enchilada sauce. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses, such as Monterey Jack or Oaxaca, to customize the flavor profile. If you prefer a smoother sauce, blend the enchilada sauce before adding it to the skillet. Consider adding shredded chicken or chorizo for a heartier meal. Fresh toppings like avocado, pico de gallo, or pickled onions can elevate this dish to the next level.
