MOLLETES
We like to eat molletes for breakfast, so I'll usually make the beans ahead of time and refrigerate them until we're ready to assemble the toast.

Steps:
- Place beans in a saucepan and add enough water to cover them by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Let stand for 1 hour.

MOLLETES MEXICANOS
An authentic breakfast item served around Mexico, these are the true molletes. There are other mollete recipes out there, but this is the traditional one. They are cheap, fast and very good. In restaurants they are served with hot coffee and fresh fruit. They can also be served as an appetizer for brunch. You can find bolillos in Mexican bakeries but can substitute 6 in. sections of French bread for the bollillos. Serve 2 for a main dish or 1 for an appetizer.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Make the salsa: combine all the ingredients in a small serving bowl and set aside.
- Cut the bolillos or French bread in half length wise. Take out some of the soft center to make space for the filling. Spread each half with 1/2 Tbs butter, top with the refried beans, place a slice of ham on top (if using), and cover with the cheese. Place the molletes in a jelly roll pan and bake until cheese is melted and bread is warmed through. Serve hot with the salsa.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven or toaster oven to 500°F.
- Heat a large pan over medium heat until it's nice and hot. Spread the butter over the cut sides of the roll halves. Place them, cut sides down, in the pan and cook until they are lightly golden brown and crispy, a minute or two.
- Spread a thin layer of beans over the toasted side of each roll. Top with a thin layer of cheese. Cook the molletes (open-faced) in the oven just until the cheese has melted and turned golden brown in a few spots, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Serve the molletes beside a bowl of the pico de gallo and let everyone top the molletes with pico de gallo themselves.
