Huevos Rancheros

Huevos Rancheros are the perfect Mexican styled breakfast with eggs and refried beans.

My hubby’s favorite genre of food is Mexican. Like faaaavorite! I love it too…but I could go out to eat simply to just eat chips and salsa. I have an addiction. I’m working on it 🙂

With summer coming up and just wanting to get healthier all around, my hubs and I are not eating fast releasing carbs (i.e.: pasta, bread, chips, etc…aka all the good stuff) during the week. We are saving them for the weekends only. During the week we can eat slow releasing carbs such as beans, etc. So…tonight for dinner we decided to have Huevos Rancheros because it’s not only delicious but could be modified to not have the stuff we are avoiding.
