Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Beat in the remaining ingredients and pour into a greased 9xI2-inch baking dish. Bake until set and browned, 30 to 45 minutes. Garnish each serving with chopped cilantro. Hint: Any leftovers can he cooled and used as a stuffing for chicken or pork.

We have turned it southwestern by the addition of sweet corn kernels, red bell peppers, and a touch of chile."
