The lightly roasted veggies are seasoned with smoky paprika and garlic, then covered in cheese and baked. Once everything begins to melt, six slices of avocado, and eggs are baked to perfection. Top it off with classic Tajín seasoning, and cotija cheese, to give it a lightly spicy kick.
If you aren’t familiar with Tajín seasoning, it’s a very popular seasoning used in Mexico. It’s made of chili pepper, desiccated lime, and salt. I love adding it to eggs for a light amount of heat and a little hint of lime. Pair that with the cotija cheese and it adds a creamy, salty, taste that will have you shaking it on everything! Cotija cheese is somewhat similar to feta cheese and can be found in large blocks at any Mexican market. You can also find an aged version that closely resembles the texture and taste of Parmesan cheese. This is often sold in plastic tubs and sometimes even Parmesan-like shakers. Aged cotija is preferred for this recipe.
The term “spicy” may not apply to everyone’s taste buds with this dish but for me it is the perfect amount of spicy vs. cheesy with the refreshing hint of lime. If you need more heat, I’ve included the option for a few jalapeño slices, too!
