Ingredients: 

2 cans of black beans (can scale down to 1 can for two people)

Half a large red onion

Cumin

Smoked Paprika

Garlic Powder

Salt and Pepper

Corn Tortillas (30 CT for family breakfast)

Eggs (2 to 3 eggs person)

Cilantro

Cojita, or Cheddar, or Pepper Jack Cheese (whatever you are vibing)

Avocado (sliced half moons)

Greek Yogurt

Pico De Gallo or Pickled Red Onions (make this one day ahead of time)

Lime(s)

EVOO or Butter


Pickled Onions

Julian some red onions, ensure they are consistent shape cut. Place in pyrex glass bowl. Squeeze two Lemons (Meyer are ideal over Lisbon). Saturate the onions, meld them in fridge for 1 to 2 days, minimum of 4 to 8 hours. Mixing and turn them after 4 to 8 hours 1 to 2 times as needed to ensure all onions have pickled.

Creamy Black Beans Ingredients & Preparation:

  1. Sauté: Finely dice about a quarter of an onion. Heat a splash of olive oil in a small pot and sauté the onion until translucent.

  2. Simmer: Add the entire can of black beans (including the liquid for better blending) to the pot.

  3. Season: Add your Mexican seasonings. A mix of cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and a pinch of smoked paprika works perfectly. Since these are low-sodium, don't forget a generous pinch of salt.

  4. Blend: Once the beans are hot, take the pot off the heat. Use your immersion blender to reach your desired consistency. You can go completely smooth or leave a few whole beans for contrast.

  5. Finish: Stir in a dollop of Greek yogurt at the very end. This adds a nice tang and extra creaminess without thinning it out too much.

Then Heat Tortillas over fire 

About 30 seconds each side just a bit under medium heat, watch so they do not catch on fire. Tongs help flip them

Sunny Side Up Eggs: 

Add a little EVOO or butter, Cook eggs sunny side up, season with Salt and Pepper, when eggs get opaque white, and then cover with lid and a bit of water to steam and then let finish cooking off heat for 2 to 3 mins.

Plating

Corn tortilla base, scoop black beans, shred cheddar on top, add pickled onions, squeeze lime. Add some chopped cilantro (freshness). Sprinkle some green hot sauce and enjoy!
