Who loves to go out to brunch? I do, but unfortunately I don’t do it often as I work weekends, but when I do brunch I do it right. I love to have all the yummies and no worries in the world. Huevos rancheros are usually my go to, they’re just so good and a burst of flavors. I woke up this past weekend with “snow storm” and my plans were to cook, eat & drink. I started of with just that !! These huevos rancheros came out soo good and it was so easy to make. Be sure to tag me if you try this recipe, I’d love to see what you guys come up with. #cookitkelly_ @cookitkelly_
Ingredients

Directions
- Start by making your ranchero sauce. Chop up tomato, onion, garlic and jalapeño. Use sauce pan heat and cook on medium high. Heat up olive oil and cook it down. Add salt and pepper to taste. Reduce heat add 1/2 of lime juice & cilantro and about 2 tablespoon of water. Let it simmer for about 15-20mins.
- In another pan, heat up vegetable oil to fry your tortillas. On medium high once hot add in tortilla and fry 3-4 minutes on each set aside on paper towel to absorb excess oil.
- In the meantime cook your egg to your liking. (I must admit cooking a perfect sunny side egg is not my strongest lol. So I usually make my fiancée cook them for me).
- Cook the beans in a sauce pan and set aside, slice the avocado and chop up a little extra cilantro for the garnish. Make your crema by mixing equal parts of water and Greek yogurt. I did about 3 tablespoons of each.
- Time to assemble the huevos rancheros .
- Tortilla, beans, fried egg, ranchero sauce, avocado , queso fresco , cream, hot sauce and cilantro in that order. It’s your dish you build it as you want of course.
- Enjoy
