Preheat oven to 350°. Spray medium skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium heat. Add chicken to skillet, cook and stir 3 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. Stir in bell peppers and onion (I added two sliced jalapeño’s and some hot pepper flakes); cook and stir 2 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Remove from heat. Combine eggs, milk and cumin in large bowl. Add cheese; mix lightly. Stir in chicken mixture. Spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. Place tortillas in pie plate to form crust, evenly overlapping each other. Carefully pour egg mixture into tortilla crust. Bake 40 minutes, or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
