Ingredients

  • 4 corn tortillas
  • ½ cup ( 125 mL ) refried beans
  • 2 teaspoons canola or olive oil
  • 4 eggs
  • ½ cup ( 125 mL ) guacamole
  • ½ cup ( 125 mL ) shredded queso fresco
  • ½ cup ( 125 mL ) chopped cherry tomatoes
  • Fresh coriander
  • Sliced green onions
  • 1 small jalapeno, thinly sliced
  • 1 lime, quartered

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven or toaster oven to 350°F (180°F). Toast tortillas in the oven for 3 to 5 minutes to crisp them up.

  2. In a small sauce pot, heat refried beans until warmed through, stirring occasionally.

  3. Heat oil in a frying pan over low to medium heat. Add eggs and fry gently to keep the edges from getting too crispy.

  4. Spread a thin layer of warmed beans evenly over tortillas. Top each with a quarter of the guacamole and queso, and a fried egg.

  5. Garnish with tomatoes, a sprinkling of coriander and green onions, and thin slices of jalapeno. Serve with lime.
