Chilaquiles


These are so much more amazing than they look. This dish is basically just corn tortillas, slightly fried, and then cooked in green salsa until they soften again. The salsa you use is important here since it is really the main flavor you taste so make sure you either make it yourself or buy a kind you really like. You can serve this with scrambled eggs or rice and beans like I did, and definitely don't skimp on the toppings!

Ingredients:

3 corn tortillas
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup tomatillo salsa
1/3 cup veggie stock
salt
avocado slices
red onion, diced
tomato slices, chopped
cilantro
queso fresco
hot sauce
sour cream

Directions:

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. While oil is heating, cut corn tortillas in half and then in strips. Fry strips of tortilla until they are slightly crunchy, turning as necessary to crisp both sides. When tortillas are crisp, reduce heat to low, add salsa and veggie stock and cook for 3-5 minutes or until tortillas begin to soften again and the sauce thickens up a bit. Season with salt and transfer to a plate. Top with avocado, red onion, tomato, cilantro, queso fresco, hot sauce, and sour cream. Serve with scrambled eggs or a side of rice and beans.
