Huevos Rancheros
Huevos Rancheros is a classic Mexican breakfast plate featuring fried eggs served on warm corn tortillas topped with refried beans and salsa. The dish balances the rich, runny eggs with the hearty beans and fresh, mildly spicy salsa. Optional garnishes such as crumbled queso fresco, pickled red onions, and avocado slices add creamy, tangy, and fresh elements to complete the flavor profile.
