Not only is today Thursday and we’re one day away from the weekend, but it’s also Cinco de Mayo, which means the party starts a little early! I already know what’s in store tonight: friends, tacos and tequila! We’re all going out for dinner tonight so I’ve teamed up with Tuttorusso to create a delicious, quick Mexican themed breakfast called Huevos Rancheros.
Ingredients
*2 Medium Tortillas
*1 Tablespoon Taco Seasoning
*1/2 Cup Diced Tuttorosso Tomatoes, Drained
*1/3 Cup Shredded Taco Cheese
*1/3 Cup Refried Beans
*1/2 Avocado
*1/4 Cup Mexican Style Corn
*2 Large Eggs
*2 Tablespoons Plain Greek Yogurt
Preheat oven to 400 Degrees.
Place the tortillas in a baking dish. Evenly distribute the beans on top of the tortillas and top corn.
Mix the the taco seasoning with the Tuttorosso tomatoes.
This is a great meat substitute. If you’d like to add meat to the recipe, you can mix in grilled chicken, steak or shrimp with the tomatoes and taco seasoning.
Add the tomatoes to the top of the bean and corn layers.
Top with taco cheese and place the Huevos Rancheros in the oven.
While the huevos rancheros are baking, fry up the eggs.
Once the edges are lightly brown and the cheese is completely melted, take them out of the oven and add them to a serving plate.
Top the the huevos rancheros with the fried egg, avocado and Greek yogurt!
These hueves rancheros took about twenty minutes to make and they were out of this world delicious. They were so flavorful, cheesy and crisp! I promise that this recipe will not disappoint.

Questions for you!
- What are your Cinco De Mayo Plans?
- What is your favorite Mexican Dish?
- Tequila or Coronas!?
Yum! Honestly, I would probably make these for dinner, not breakfast. The egg would still add some protein, but I love that they could be in the oven while I’m doing something else, packing up my lunch for the next day, or wiping down the counters, etc. I try to multi-task if I have food that can’t be prepped ahead of time, ’cause once I’m hungry, waiting around for dinner to cook is the worst.
I posted about my travels to Venice today on my blog, I would love if you would check it out…& maybe even give me some feedback. 🙂
I think theyre perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner! I need to get a dose of your ball of energy! You’re always doing something 🙂 I love that! I will definitely head over to your blog!! xo xo
This recipe looks delicious! I can’t wait to try it!
I tried your last Tuttorosso recipes for salsa and guacamole and they were DELICIOUS! A+!! My husband is a self proclaimed salsa connoisseur and he said it was one of the best salsa’s he’s ever had! So thank you for my new go to salsa recipe!! 🙂
Thanks Carly!
That is a huge compliment!:) I’m so glad it turned out well for you!
A tip for veggie folks like me: use black beans instead of refried, as many refried beans are not vegetarian-friendly. Looks good!
By the way, huevos means eggs. The recipe name translates to “ranch eggs” or “ranch-style eggs.” Technically you’re just putting the tortilla in the oven. 🙂 Very creative to do that! Most Mexican places just serve it on the side.
Thanks for the tip Nico! These ones were vegetarian friendly, but black beans are great too!
Wow, now it’s a serious taco! I love you substitute meat with tomatoes; I’d add some mushrooms and shrimp, but your tacos look so filling! Also I never seen egg on taco, but I kinda like the idea! Great recipe! – Love, Anna
Thank you Anna! I bet adding the mushrooms (not for me) and shrimp (for me) would be great! Egg & tacos are fantastic together! xo
I love how everything is make your own! I had a make your own pizza day with a few friends a month away from now 🙂
Love that!
These look great! I can’t wait for some tequila tonight! 🙂
Enjoy that tequila & thank you!
Happy Cinco De Mayo!
Mexican food is by far one of my favourites (but I could never betray Italian food) And these look delicious.
My favourite Mexican food would have to be tacos, but I hardly eat them. I think I need to change that!
I love reading your posts with Tuttorosso recipes. I haven’t seen this brand in Canada, but the tomatoes look delicious 🙂
Oh and to answer your last question, always Tequila 😉

Hey B!
That is exactly how I feel! I do love my Italian food 🙂 I love making tacos wrapped in lettuce! I need to make those this weekend.
Thank you thank you! I love the Tuttorosso brand!
& tequila for the win!
yum! pinning this!
1. tacos at a jr. livestock show. should be interesting!
2. I basically love everything Mexican. My bff is of Mexican/Spanish/latino/Puerto Rican decent so I get exposed to lots of different styles and varieties of authentic dishes.
3. I had a bad experience with jose cuervo once so I take my tequila very lightly. so bring on the cervesas!
Thank you!
That WILL be interesting and I cannot wait to hear about it!
Wow I bet you get all tons of yummy food!!!
lol I think tequila is a hit or miss because of that reason!
Yum! The yogurt is a bit I use all the time now – I don’t even buy sour cream anymore. My mother in law loves huevos rancheros so I’ll have to serve these up for her!
It taste just like sour cream! These ones are so simple to make and the flavor is awesome!!
These sound yummy! I love anything Mexican! I also love Cinco De Mayo! I would definitely say tequila…in a margarita!! Have fun celebrating!
Thank you Tara! I hope you have fun celebrating too!
1. Unfortunately my Cinco de Mayo plans mostly involve sitting in my Constitutional Law class and working. A couple friends and I celebrated early last night though!
2. Every time my friends and I go out to one of our favorite Mexican places, I order the California Burrito. It has rice, beans, avocado, cilantro, jalapeno, tomato and either chicken or steak. I always order it without tomatoes though. It’s big enough for at least two meals so I always have leftovers!
3. Tequila, as long as it’s in Margarita form! 😉
1. At least you had the chance to celebrate early! I hope your class went well.
2. That sounds like something I’d order without cilantro! Cilantro tastes like soap to me lol
3. SAME!
Cinco De Mayo plans nothing really watching Stitchers with my one daughter and helping my other study for a big Biology final.
I live Huevos Rancheros and just plain old tacos with purple corn tortillas. All the colors of the salsa, and purple corn tortillas are so pretty.
Neither I don’t drink,
like not live 🙂 oops!
I don’t think you can go wrong with plain tacos! 🙂 I also think Mexican food is always pretty!
The recipe looks great and seems to be rather cheap as well. Being a student, I really like that 🙂
For me it was not cinco de mayo yesterday, but the Dutch liberation day. Everywhere in the country there are big festivals you can attend for free. The music was amazing and I had a great time there with my friends 🙂
Thank you & it was VERY inexpensive to make.
That sounds like such a fun day!!
You should do more recipes! Yours are the best.
Thank you Kammy!
Thank you for incorporating more vegetarian meals into your blogposts. I know you have to eat meat because of your anemia but it’s nice to see more vegetarian meals for your followers. I find it so hard to eat vegetarian food in Southern Georgia. Your blog has a lot of great ideas for easy vegetarian options. Thank you for introducing me to those black bean burgers as they are my favorite now. I look forward to seeing more of your meals.
Love,
Dixie (Emily)
Thank you Dixie (Emily) 🙂
I’m sure it is hard down there! It’s all about finding the substitutes at the grocery stores 🙂 I crave those black bean burgers all the time now!!
xo xo
This looks awesome! Do people typically make huevos rancheros with meat? I’ve only ever had egg and bean style ones. I think my favorite are fish tacos or just guac and chips!
I’ve seen it made all kinds of different ways! Guac and chips with queso and salsa!!
Hey Taralynn I was just wondering what kind o camera you use to take your blog pictures?
I use a Cannon T5I! 🙂
