Do you want to try something different for breakfast? Maybe something different from regular old toast with peanut butter and jelly? ;P How about Huevos Rancheros? A little explosion of colors and flavors on your plate. The perfect dish to start your day! And so easy to prepare – 20 minutes tops and you can sit down and enjoy this delicious dish with your loved one(s) ;)
I have to admit – these ranch-style eggs are nothing I would do on a Monday morning just for myself. I prefer a cup of coffee and whatever edible is within reach on a Monday morning. That can be a slice of bread or leftover cake from Sunday afternoon with the family. On a Monday I really don’t care ;) On a weekend – completely different. On the weekend I normally take some time to prepare breakfast and enjoy it with my bf or friends… Monday does not deserve this. Monday is the beginning of everything evil. Just kidding ;P
Anyway. I guess some of you would call this dish “hipster food”. All that’s missing is an additional grilled avocado and then you’re in a small hipster coffee shop somewhere in London or L.A. ;P Well… that’s probably not too far away from reality. This dish is a popular menu item in locations like that – even here in Berlin. BUT… it’s really delicious. You can’t argue about that. Without the “grilled avo”, of course. No fancy-schmancy avo needed ;P
I now use refried beans in several of my recipes here on the blog. Simple cooked and fried beans with onions and some spices that have been mashed until you get a chunky dark paste. I love it. Refried Beans are easy and quite cheap to make, a good addition to your diet, and can be used for many dishes. From Sandwiches to wraps, quesadillas and much more. All very delicious! ;) It’s actually a good idea to prepare a large pot of refried beans and use it for as many recipes as possible. If you want to keep refried beans for longer, you can easily freeze a container. Just saying ;)
