This is from a 1908 recipe in the book Mexican Cooking by Gebhardt Chili Powder Company, possibly the first Mexican-American cookbook.

It’s basically eggs, cheese, onions, and chili powder, cooked up and eaten on fried tortilla strips. (I used chips instead.) Pretty tasty, but not as spicy as it could have been, I think.

This is another recipe that will be in Resurrected Recipes once I get it written up.

I have no idea how old this cookbook is, but it’s at least as old as I am.
