Huevos Rancheros, also called Rancher\u2019s eggs, is a light breakfast option usually consisting of fried eggs over corn tortillas topped with salsa or pico de gallo. The reason I think of this as a light breakfast is because traditionally it was served as a second breakfast to ranchers after they would come back from working in the early morning. <\/p>\n

This huevos rancheros recipe is how I like to make it; which is a bit more Tex-Mex style. I like to use tostada shells, which are crispy corn tortillas. It\u2019s like a giant tortilla chip. If you can\u2019t find them simply make your own by frying a corn tortilla. But I like the crunchiness paired with the fried egg (runny yolk). I also top mine with either refried beans or black beans. This makes the meal a little more filling but still a vegetarian friendly breakfast. <\/p>\n

How to make Huevos Rancheros<\/h2>\n

Spread the refried beans in a thin layer over the tostada shells. Warm in the oven at 350\u00b0F for 5-8 minutes.<\/p>\n

Fry or cook the eggs however you prefer. I like fried eggs with a runny yolk, but sunny side up or soft scrambling is great too. <\/p>\n

Top the warmed tostadas with the eggs. Then add your other toppings like salsa, pico de gallo and fresh avocado. Sprinkle with a salt and pepper or add some hot sauce. Serve warm. <\/p>\n
