Ingredients
  

  • Corn Tortillas Lightly fried to provide the essential crispy base for your eggs.
  • Eggs The star of the dish, preferably cooked sunny-side up to keep the yolk runny.
  • Tomato Sauce A savory, homemade sauce made from tomatoes, onions, garlic, and chili peppers, providing the dish’s signature punch.
  • Refried Beans (Optional) Adding refried beans brings a creamy texture and extra protein to the dish, making it even more satisfying.
  • Toppings Fresh cilantro, avocado slices, crumbled cotija or feta cheese, and a squeeze of lime juice to brighten up the flavors.
  • Seasonings Salt, pepper, cumin, and smoked paprika, which enhance the depth of flavor and add warmth to the dish.
