instructions
    1

    In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the tortillas one at a time and cook for about 1 minute on each side until they are golden and soft. Remove and set aside.

    2

    In the same skillet, crack the eggs carefully and gently fry them sunny-side up, cooking for about 3 to 4 minutes or until the whites are set but yolks remain runny.

    3

    While the eggs are frying, heat the can of black beans in a small saucepan over low heat until warm, about 5 minutes.

    4

    To assemble, start with a tortilla, layer the warm black beans, top with a fried egg, and generously drizzle green salsa over the top.

    5

    Garnish with slices of avocado, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice before serving.

How to be creative
  • Add crumbled feta cheese or queso fresco for extra creaminess.
  • Incorporate sautéed vegetables, like bell peppers or onions, for added flavor and nutrition.
  • Serve with a side of pickled jalapeños for an extra kick.
Important Tips
  • For perfectly fried eggs, ensure the skillet is preheated but not smoking.
  • Let the tortillas cool slightly after frying to prevent them from getting too crispy.
  • Try using homemade salsa verde for an authentic taste.
