Cook Mode

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

Heat a large frying pan or cast iron pan over medium high heat. Add olive oil to coat the pan and saute the onion, bell and poblano peppers.u00a0 Season with salt and pepper and stir from time to time.
Once they are softened and the onion is almost translucent, add the garlic. Stir and let heat through until fragrant.
Add the tomatoes and chipotle peppers, stirring again to combine the ingredients well. Reduce the heat to medium, cover and let simmer. Stir and mash the tomatoes as they break down. This should take about 5-10 minutes.
Taste and re-season the sauce with salt and pepper if needed.
Turn the heat to medium low, then carefully crack the eggs onto the top of the tomato sauce. Cover and let the eggs cook to your preferred done-ness.
Top with crumbled cojita cheese and chopped fresh cilantro along with warm crusty gluten free bread.
*This recipe will serve four if you plan to ladle 2 eggs with an extra scoop or two of the sauce per person.
