Huevos Rancheros Recipe

Huevos Rancheros

Here is a meatless meal that is full of flavor and very quick to make. Let your kids assemble the ingredients…the first time, they may only want egg in a tortilla. But as they see others eating salsa or beans, they will eventually feel comfortable doing the same.

Huevos Rancheros

Allow 1-2 eggs and 1 tortilla per person

  • Oil
  • Corn tortilla (1 per egg)
  • Eggs, poached or fried over-easy to over-medium
  • Refried beans, canned (may be seasoned with cumin, black pepper and oregano)
  • Tomato or tomatillo salsa
  • Shredded cheese
  1. Heat 1 Tbsp. oil over high heat. Quickly fry corn tortillas to soften, drain on paper towels.
  2. Warm the beans in the microwave and then spread a thin layer on the tortillas. Top with eggs.
  3. Smother with salsa and top with shredded cheese.
