Dr. Josh’s #1 All Time Favorite Breakfast: Huevos Rancheros

Ingredients – serves 1

• • • 2 small corn tortillas
    • ½ cup warmed whole or mashed pinto or black beans
    • ½ cup roasted sweet-potato cubes (or sautéed spinach, onion, or zucchini)
    • 2 Tbsp pickled jalapeño slices
    • 2 eggs (ideally pasture-raised) 
    • ½ small ripe avocado, sliced
    • ½ cup shredded red or green cabbage
    • Handful fresh cilantro leaves
    • Hot sauce to taste (I love Tabasco!) 
    • Olive oil, avocado oil, or grass-fed butter for frying eggs 

Directions

1. 1. 1. Prep tortillas
         Pre-heat oven or toaster oven to 400 °F. Lay oil tortillas on a baking tray.
      2. Layer beans & veggies
         Spread beans over tortillas; top with roasted sweet potatoes (or other veggies).
      3. Add spice
         Scatter jalapeño slices and sprinkle cheese (optional).
      4. Bake
         Bake 8–10 minutes until edges crisp and cheese melts.
      5. Fry eggs
         While tortillas bake, fry eggs in a lightly oiled pan to desired doneness.
      6. Assemble
         Plate baked tortillas, place a fried egg on each, then add avocado slices.
      7. Finish
         Top with shredded cabbage, cilantro, and hot sauce. Serve immediately.
