If there is one thing I won’t ever pass up, it’s brunch. Food, friends, mimosas…what’s not to love about that?
This brunch, we had some delicious huevos rancheros and avocado toast. (My personal fave!) Want to know what’s even better about this brunch? It’s SO EASY to make! It requires a few ingredients and tastes amazing!
Since I’m doing two dishes in this post, I’m going to do the formatting a little different than normal. Or at least give it a shot and see if I like it. Here we go!
Huevos Rancheros
To start the huevos rancheros, you need to gather all your ingredients: eggs, corn tortillas, cheese, salsa, and any other toppings you like. For the huevos rancheros pictured, the extra toppings were cilantro, bell pepper, and tomato.
Dice any of the extra toppings you chose, and set aside. Warm up your tortillas, and prepare an over-easy egg. Place the egg on the tortilla, and then top with the cheese, salsa, and remaining toppings.
How easy was that?! These can be eaten by themselves or you can serve with a side. That is where the next recipe comes in handy.
Avocado Toast
This is literally the easiest recipe, but one of my all time favorites. It requires 4 ingredients. Ready? Avocados, bread, salt, and paprika. That is it.
I used sourdough bread and it gives it a great added crunch and flavor. I also prefer to use pink Himalayan salt or sea salt because it helps to add texture as well.
Toast your bread, and while bread is toasting, mash up your avocado. It doesn’t have to be smooth, it can have some lumps/chunks in it still. Once the bread is done, spread the avocado mash on and sprinkle with the salt and paprika.
When you’ve done all that, you’re ready to eat it and enjoy!
This recipe is quick and easy. You can prepare it in advance, for an on-the-go breakfast, a snack…there are so many options!
