  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil, plus more for frying eggs
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • For the salsa: 4 tomatoes, diced
  • 1/2 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup crumbled cotija or feta cheese

Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the salsa by combining diced tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Set aside.

  2. 2

    In a small saucepan, heat black beans with cumin and chili powder. Keep warm.

  3. 3

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and lightly brush with oil. Warm tortillas one at a time, about 30 seconds per side, until slightly crispy. Transfer to plates.

  4. 4

    In the same skillet, add more oil if needed. Fry eggs to desired doneness (sunny-side up is traditional).

  5. 5

    Assemble by placing 2 tortillas on each plate. Top each tortilla with warm black beans, a fried egg, and salsa.

  6. 6

    Garnish with avocado slices and sprinkle with cheese before serving.
