Description

Tools:

You will need a frying pan and a small pot that are grill friendly. Be careful to use oven mitts and don’t try to remove the pots/cast iron cookware until the grill and pot/pan have cooled.

Serves 4


Ingredients

Scale
  • One packet of wheat tortillas (if corn is your preference then go for it!)
  • 1 can of black beans
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • one small onion, sliced into rings
  • 8 eggs
  • 2 cups high quality or homemade salsa
  • 2 ripe Haas Avocados, chopped
  • 2 cups grated pepper jack cheese
  • one lime, use the juice to squirt on the avocado so they don’t turn brown
  • 1 bunch cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Heat your grill to medium heat and create direct and indirect cooking zones. Make sure that you control the heat on your grill so the pans don’t get too-hot. 
  2. Drizzle olive oil in the cast iron pan and crack your eggs and let them cook until over easy. Place a pot with the beans and the added chopped garlic and place them on direct heat.
  3. Meanwhile, on the indirect heat side, toast the tortillas until they get char marks on both sides and become toasted.
  4. Grill the onions on direct where space is available until char marks form. Once done, chop them for serving.
  5. Layer 2 tortillas with eggs and beans on a plate. Top with a generous amount of cheese, grilled onions, salsa, sour cream, chopped avocado and cilantro. Serve with your favorite hot sauce or chopped jalapenos.
