What Is Huevos Rancheros?
Huevos rancheros, or ranch-style eggs, are a classic Mexican breakfast made with toasted corn tortillas, eggs, and sometimes salsa. Our vegetarian version is packed with sweet potatoes, pinto beans, eggs, and avocado. Rather than mix the tortilla into the skillet, we're serving it alongside.
Ingredients
-
1 cup frozen roasted cubed sweet potatoes (such as such as Good & Gather Steam-in-Bag Roasted Sweet Potatoes)
-
1 tsp. chili powder or ground ancho chile pepper
-
1 cup restaurant-style salsa
-
½ cup rinsed and drained canned black or pinto beans
-
2 eggs
-
1 tortilla corn
-
1/2 peeled and sliced avocado
-
Fresh cilantro leaves
Directions
-
In a 6- to 8-inch skillet, heat 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the sweet potatoes. Cook, stirring once, until completely heated through, about 7 minutes.
-
Stir in chili powder; cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the salsa and pinto beans. Bring the mixture just to simmering.
-
Make two indentations in the mixture with the back of a spoon. Break the eggs one at a time into a custard cup and slip into the indentations. Simmer, covered, over medium-low until the whites are set and the yolk has thickened, 7 to 9 minutes.
-
Serve with a corn tortilla. To warm the tortilla, wrap in paper towels and microwave on high until warm, about 20 seconds. Top with the sliced avocado and cilantro (if using).
