Huevos Rancheros




Guess I'm on a Mexican food kick.  Oh, who am I kidding?  I'm always on a Mexican food kick  I just love it, and I make it for my family at least once a week.


Well, last night I had some taco leftovers from the night before and on a whim, decided to make my own huevos rancheros. I just love the combination of different flavors and textures of this dish.  I had it for dinner this time, but it would be such a yummy break from the usual Saturday morning breakfasts we make.You should give it a shot too..it's incredibly easy and delicious!

Now, I just ask that those foodies out there forgive my "over-cooked egg"  I personally prefer my eggs over-easy, so that's how I made it.  I also used black beans instead of refried beans since I like them better. And you can also make adjustments where you like.  Here's what I did...

Huevos Rancheros

1 soft corn tortilla
1/2 tablespoon butter
cheddar cheese, shredded
pico de gallo or salsa
black beans, warmed
1 egg

Heat a small skillet on medium heat. Lightly fry the tortilla in butter until slightly browned on both sides.
Remove to a plate and sprinkle cheese on top.  

Reduce heat slightly and fry egg to desired doneness and place on top of cheese.  Add beans and pico de gallo and serve.
