Mexican Eggs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Make the salsa: In a blender or food processor puree tomatillos, garlic, onions, cilantro, water, jalapeno pepper and salt. In a saucepan, bring the salsa to a simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes. Transfer the salsa into a bowl and set the bowl aside.
• Make the filling: Put the chopped tomatoes into a sieve, and let them drain for 10 minutes or more.
• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the bell peppers, and saute them until they are soft, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add the eggs, and turn the heat to low. Stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, let the eggs cook until they begin to set. Take the skillet off the heat and sprinkle in the salt, pepper, 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese and the drained tomatoes; stir gently.
• Lay a flour tortilla on a work surface. Spread about 2/3 cup of the egg filling down the middle of the tortilla. Drop 1 tablespoon of the sour cream on top of the eggs. Fold in the sides of the tortilla to partly cover the egg mixture, then roll the tortilla, folding in the outer edges as you roll, to enclose the egg mixture completely. Continue this process with the remaining filling and the tortillas.
• Place the filled tortillas close together in a 10x16 inch casserole dish. At this point you can cover the dish and chill it for up to 24 hours.
• Pour the salsa over the filled tortillas, and sprinkle them with the 1/2 cup grated cheese. Cover the dish with foil, and bake the casserole for 15 minutes (25 minutes if it has been chilled). Serve hot.

Steps:

• Slice the eggs in half lengthwise; remove yolks and set whites aside. In a small bowl, mash yolks with cheese, mayonnaise, salsa, onions, sour cream and salt. , Stuff or pipe into egg whites. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a 10-inch frying pan, cook bacon until crisp.
• Remove from pan with slotted spoon and drain.
• Add onion and garlic to bacon drippings in the pan.
• Cook until onion is soft.
• Stir in tomatoes, chilies, salt, and oregano.
• Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
• Continue boiling until sauce thickens, about 15 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low.
• Crack eggs and slowly slip into sauce, one at a time.
• Sprinkle cheese and bacon over the top.
• Cover and simmer until eggs are set, about 5 to 7 minutes.
• Sprinkle with the cilantro.
• Serve with guacamole and warmed tortillas on the side of the plate, if desired.

Steps:

• Whisk eggs together in a bowl. Mix in onion, milk, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, jalapeno pepper, chile powder, onion powder, cumin, cinnamon, salt, and pepper.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; grease with cooking spray. Pour in egg mixture; cook and stir until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy nonstick skillet. Add the onion. Cook, stirring, for about three minutes until just tender. Turn the heat to medium-high, and add the chilies, garlic, tomatoes and half the cilantro. The mixture should sear in the pan. Cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down and the mixture is lightly browned, five to eight minutes. Season to taste with salt, and turn the heat down to medium. The tomatoes should not be watery.
• Beat the eggs in a medium bowl, and add salt to taste and the remaining cilantro. Add to the pan and cook, stirring every few seconds to create large curds, until the eggs are scrambled. Taste, adjust seasoning and serve.
