Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons avocado or olive oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 small green pepper, chopped
  • 2 close garlic, smashed
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon chipotle pepper
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (more if you can take the heat)
  • 2 17-ounce cans fire-roasted, diced tomatoes
  • 6-7 large eggs
  • ¾ cup Mexican blend cheese
  • Cilantro or parsley sprigs (for garnish)
  • 6-12 corn tortillas
  • non-stick pan spray

Instructions

  • Heat oil to medium in large skillet, saute onions, peppers, and garlic until transleucent.
  • Add spices in the order shown in the recipe. (I used only a pinch of salt, because the canned tomatoes have salt added.)
  • Turn heat to low and simmer tomatoes and spices for 20-25 minutes on low heat. Spray another skillet with non-stick cooking spray and toast corn tortillas over medium heat until they brown (about 3 minutes on each side). Turn tortillas warm in oven until time to serve.
  • Crack 6-7 eggs, one at a time, into a ramekin. Gently pour each egg into sauce.
  • For sunny-side-up eggs, do not cover the pot. For well-done eggs, cover the pot and simmer until eggs set to desired doneness. Sprinkle cheese over the dish while its hot.
  • Garnish with cilantro or parsley and serve over warmed tortillas.
