My Mom’s Huevos Rancheros/ by Bryan Besse, Palace Kitchen Line Cook

I’ve been eating this dish as long as I can remember.  It’s not traditional huevos, in fact, I think my mom only calls it “huevos” because there’s beans in it.  Regardless, it’s awesome and so easy it’s stupid.

All you need is:

1 can of refried beans

1 jar salsa- Pace or whatever

6 eggs

cheddar cheese

flour tortillas and butter

Spread the beans out in a small baking dish, then coat the beans with the salsa.  Soft scramble the eggs, put on top of the beans and salsa, and top with cheddar cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted and the beans are hot.  Don’t forget my favorite part… the tortillas!  Spread butter on ‘em, roll ‘em up, and bake in tin foil until they get soft and chewy.  That’s what I call breakfast!
