Servings: persons

part 1
2 eggs
1 small corn tortilla
2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Pico de Gallo
2 tablespoons finely chopped tomatoes
1/2 tablespoon finely chopped onions
1/2 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
salt

1
Heat a non-stick pan on medium heat.
2
Add oil or cooking spray.
3
Place the corn tortilla on the pan and let it cook for 2 minutes.
4
Flip the tortilla.
5
Add eggs right on top of the cooked side of the tortilla. (Make sure the yolk doesn't break when you crack the egg)
6
Cook for about 3 minutes and then flip the tortilla+eggs over. Here's the thing...you don't have to flip them, but if you're in a rush, cooking them over easy or over medium would be faster. It does make a bit of a mess when you flip them over, that is the reason why the tortilla is folded over because the egg yolks shifted to one side of the tortilla. It turned into a Huevos Rancheros taco..so easy to eat. Anyway, if you have time, then you can let them cook sunny side up until the egg whites go from clear to white.
7
In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for pico de gallo.
8
Once the eggs are cooked, place the tortilla+eggs on a plate, add salt and pepper if you want and serve with pico de gallo.
