As I understand it this dish is basically a tortilla
topped with beans, eggs, and sauce and while I’ve eaten them out many times, I
can’t recall ever making them at home, but that changed today. My construction of them was based upon using what
we still had left from our Tex-Mex Thanksgiving meal and I made a single for
Bev and a double for me.
Before assembly. I got everything ready – sliced an
avocado, reheated the red enchilada sauce, heated, strained, and lightly mashed
the charro beans, set out the pico di gallo, and Mexican cheese blend.
Bev's was first beginning with frying a corn tortilla in
oil for a minute or so then topping with the sauce, beans, and cheese and nuked to melt the cheese and rewarm everything.
Finally I added an over easy egg, more cheese, and a
drizzle of sauce before siding with avocado and pico di gallo (unfortunately
the fresh cilantro and salsa were both gone).
Mine was assembled the same except with two tortillas and
two eggs.
Bev took a bite said it was delicious and suggested we
should have it every morning until the leftovers were gone, but I advised we had just a few beans left so she rummaged thru the fridge and came up with half a can of black beans so tomorrow it will be. I also thought the dish was
delicious and as good as any I’ve eaten and I believe the flavorful Charro Beans made a
big difference.

One of my all time favorite breakfasts! It looks terrific Larry.
ReplyDeleteLarry, Now that's a Big Dude breakfast if I ever saw one! No surprise that Bev liked it too... It seems like it has been awhile since you posted an 'egg special' and it reminded me that I'm past due in this regard as well. Hope all is well and we'll see ya'll soon! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteYay for Huevo Rancheros! It's been awhile since I've had it. Now I'll be craving it.
ReplyDeleteThat has got to be one of my all time favorite breakfast dishes. You did a GREAT job and I'm definitely longing for a taste of that.
