- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt more to taste
- 4-6 cracks black pepper
- 14.5 ounce can fire-roasted tomatoes
Huevos Rancheros Assembly
- 6 small tortillas I like La Tortilla Factory White Corn
- 16 ounce can refried beans heated according to directions on can
- 6 eggs fried, baked, or poached
- 6 tablespoons feta cheese
- chopped cilantro and lime wedges for garnish and serving
- avocado sliced or diced, optional
Instructions
Pan Salsa
- Heat a medium sized skillet to medium heat. When hot, add olive oil and then onion, garlic and jalapeno. Sauté, stirring constantly for 4-5 minutes. Add cumin, salt and pepper and stir. Add tomatoes (including juices) and bring mixture to a simmer. Stir while simmering for about 5 minutes, using a spatula to scrape bottom of pan to release browned vegetables. Set salsa mixture aside.
Huevos Rancheros Assembly
- Heat a clean non-stick skillet and spray with non-stick spray. Heat tortillas one at a time until bubbly and golden brown. Spread about 1/4 cup beans on each tortilla and top with a fried egg. Spoon about 1/4 cup salsa over the top and sprinkle with cilantro and feta. Serve with lime wedges if desired. Serves 6.
Notes
- This meal is best eaten fresh. If you have leftover ingredients, store them separately in the fridge until ready to use again. For ingredients like the salsa and opened refried beans, they are best enjoyed within 4-5 days.
- Planning ahead? Make your salsa and store in the fridge, or even the freezer, so you always have some on hand!
