Tex Mex Eggs Ranch Breakfast

HolisticJB

Our healthy take on the classic Mexican breakfast. Huevos Rancheros, translated as "ranch eggs" are fried eggs served on hot corn tortillas and smothered in cooked salsa. So we just remove those tortillas and a lot of the oils and fats! Trust me, it is just as good. Some would say better, and I agree!

When you start to eat them, wow the taste is incredible. The egg yolk is nice and runny and it mixes in with the salsa and beans. It is just incredible! The recipe is also really flexible. You can use canned salsa, or make your own. Or add a few freshly chopped tomatoes or for that extra spicy heat add chopped jalapeños and mix through your salsa or sauce. Enjoy!

Other Variations of Tex Mex Eggs:

As the traditional Huevos Rancheros dish spread beyond the borders of Mexico, other variations on the classic have taken hold!

You’ll find dishes using wheat flour tortillas instead of the classic corn. There are those that use enchilada sauces with pureed hot chili instead of the tomato-chili salsa fresca.

Non Mexican additions also appeared. Those began using ingredients such as cheese and sour cream. The addition of lettuce has also now become a common addition.

Huevos Divorciados

“Huevos divorciados” (or commonly known as the divorced eggs) are simply two fried eggs that are served in the same style as huevos rancheros.

The difference is that each egg is served with a different style of sauce. Most commonly the two sauces used are a salsa roja and a salsa verde.
