Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Stack packs a tasty punch for breakfast. Hearty and filling, this classic Mexican feast is kicked up with non-traditional ingredients. Want. Need. Love!
Saturdays are the only day we really get to cook and eat breakfast as a family. For that reason, we like to make a big breakfast. I plan my long run each week to fall on Saturday so that I can enjoy a few extra calories without feeling guilty. Everyone is happy!
Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Stack
Even on a non-busy Saturday, I don’t want to spend a long time in the kitchen cooking breakfast. I used a packaged hashbrown potato as a starter for my Huevos Rancheros. They’re a quick solution for speedy recipes and require no peeling and shredding. I like to keep a bag on hand for our Saturday breakfasts and when we have ‘brinner’ (breakfast for dinner) during the week. They’re so versatile, you’ll find yourself reaching for this time after time.
I layered ham, black beans, eggs, avocados, and tomatoes onto my Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Stack. Even though there are several ingredients, this recipe is not difficult or time-consuming.
Another easy breakfast recipe I reach for repeatedly is Breakfast Burritos.
