Ingredients

  • 8 eggs
  • 1 jalapeno halved with core removed
  • 1 onion quartered
  • 8 roma tomatoes quartered
  • 4 garlic cloves large and whole
  • 1 Lime
  • 1-2 tsp course sea salt
  • Refried Beans
  • oil for frying tortillas
  • Corn Tortillas
  • Avocado
  • Cilantro
  • Cojita sheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Add quartered tomatoes, halved jalapeno pepper, onions, and garlic to a sheet pan. Season with salt. Roast in the oven at 425°F for 30 minutes.
    Pulse with an immersion blender or a blender. Add juice of entire lime and salt to taste. You will want to serve salsa warm. You can keep warm in a sauce pan while you fry up the eggs and tortillas.
  • While the vegetables are roasting prepare beans, tortillas and eggs. In a large frying pan add some neutral flavored oil and heat over medium heat until it is 350° F.
  • Fry the corn tortillas until crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side. Place on paper towel to soak up extra oil.
  • Cook eggs individually as desired. (over-easy, over-medium, etc.)
  • Layer on your crispy tortilla, refried beans (using our easy recipe), egg and roasted salsa.
  • Garnish with cheese, cilantro and avocado as desired. Totally enjoy!

Notes

  • If you like your salsa on the chunkier side, pulse until well combined with some pieces remaining. For a smoother version, blend longer.
  • Be sure the oil is hot enough before frying the tortillas or they can become soggy rather than crispy.
  • Feel free to make the salsa up to 3 days in advance and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
