"I break the yolks, make a smiley face I kinda like it in my brand new place..." Jewel



I think starting a Saturday morning with a breakfast that will hold you all weekend is a good idea, so this morning I got up and made Dennis a big plate of huervos rancheros and a nice cup of Spanish coffee. This meal was so easy, quick and filling, that I am surprised I've gone my entire life without making it.

I opened a can of Goya black beans and while they were heating in a little pot on the stove, and heated up some left over refried beans in the microwave. I tossed a couple of whole wheat tortillas in my black iron frying pan and let them get nice and tasty with a little butter. I used no fat in the beans and skim-plus in the coffee, so I decided the minimal amount of butter would be justified. While the tortillas and beans were heating, I made a couple of eggs over easy. I smeared the tortilla with a little refried bean, added the black beans, and laid the eggs right in the middle, sprinkled with a little cheese. Then I dumped some Goya Pico de Gallo in the pan that was still hot from the eggs and let that cook down until is was thick and bubbly. While that was cooking, I sliced an avocado.  Poured the salsa on the eggs and in less than 15 minutes made my husband a meal he loved. 

Now that we won't have to eat again for a few days, I think I'll tackle the laundry.
