Notes
- If you want to use an egg for this recipe, you can either top the chilaquiles with a fried egg once they're done cooking or you can crack an egg right on top before putting the pan into the oven.
- You can use any type of meat for this recipe.
- You can use queso fresco instead of feta if you prefer.
- You can store this in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day. Unfortunately you can't store this in the freezer so be sure to eat this right away. These chilaquiles are best when fresh.
