Steps:

• Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

• Meanwhile, mix eggs, cream, salt, pepper, chili powder, and garlic in a medium bowl.
• Whisk vigorously until the eggs are a uniform color with no streaks.
• Spread ham mixture evenly in the pan.

Wipe skillet with a paper towel; reserve skillet.

Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes. Stir in cheese and reserved vegetables. Serve with salsa, avocado, and tortillas.
