A modern healthier twist on the traditional Huevos Rancheros, but just as hearty! The essence is the combination of eggs, tortillas, and a spicy sauce which we have here, but I use taco seasoned grass-fed ground beef instead of chorizo. I love making this with leftover taco meat! This dish is so delicious and can be customized based on personal preference.

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Using a medium pan, heat beef and break apart using a meat chopper. Once halfway cooked, add taco seasoning. Turn off heat and cover to keep warm.
  2. In another medium pan, lightly spray tortillas with avocado oil on both sides and heat over medium-high heat until they get crispy and air bubbles start to form inside, about 1-2 minutes on both sides. Set tortillas aside.
  3. Lightly spray that same pan with more oil, add eggs. Cover and cook until the whites set for sunny-side up or longer depending on preference.
  4. To serve, place 2 tortillas on each plate, top with seasoned ground beef, salsa mixed with hot sauce, eggs, more salsa, cheese, avocado, green onion, and fresh ground black pepper.

Notes

Feel free to use turkey or chorizo instead of beef, or even make this vegetarian by sauteeing onion, tomato, and chopped green chilies in place of the meat. Swap the cotija for queso or shredded cheddar. Add smashed black beans or refried beans for more fiber. Can also top with shredded lettuce, jalapeños, sour cream, or fresh tomatoes.
