Huevos Rancheros (Vegetarian Version)

Yields4 ServingsPrep Time15 minsCook Time15 minsTotal Time30 mins

 4 corn tortillas
 4 large eggs
 1 cup salsa (red or green)
 1 cup refried beans (vegetarian)
 1 avocado, sliced
 1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco (optional)
 Fresh cilantro, for garnish
 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
 Salt and pepper, to taste
1

Prepare the Salsa:
You can use store-bought salsa or make your own by blending tomatoes, onions, cilantro, jalapeƱos, and garlic.

2

Warm the Refried Beans:
In a small saucepan, heat the refried beans over medium heat until warm. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

3

Fry the Tortillas:
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tortillas one at a time, frying for about 30 seconds on each side until they are lightly crispy but still pliable. Drain on paper towels.

4

Cook the Eggs:
In the same skillet, add the remaining oil. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry them to your liking (traditionally sunny side up).

5

Assemble Huevos Rancheros:
Place a warm tortilla on each plate. Spread a layer of refried beans on each tortilla, then top each with a fried egg.
Spoon generous amounts of salsa over the eggs. Garnish with slices of avocado, crumbled queso fresco, and fresh cilantro.

6

Season and Serve:
Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately while hot.
