Ingredients

  • cooking spray
  • 8 6- inch corn tortillas
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup of refried beans I used a canned vegetarian version
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup of prepared salsa
  • 8 eggs
  • 3/4 cup of grated cheese I used monterey jack
  • 1/4 cup of chopped fresh cilantro
  • hot sauce to serve tabasco or sriracha are both delicious on here

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Spray the muffin tin with cooking spray.
  3. Wrap the tortillas into a paper towel and microwave on high for 30 seconds.
  4. Working quickly, work the tortillas into the muffin tins folding a few times on the side to maintain a cup shape.
  5. Put a heaping spoonful of refried beans on the bottoms of each cup.
  6. Top lightly with the salsa, just covering the beans.
  7. Crack an egg into each cup, and spoon a thin layer of salsa on top of the egg.
  8. Sprinkle cheese generously on each cup.
  9. Bake 15-20 minutes, taking it out of the oven when the egg whites are just set (the yolks should still be runny).
  10. Top with chopped cilantro and serve with hot sauce.
