How to Make Bandito Eggs

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Squeeze lime juice over avocado slices and set aside.
  3. Warm the two small casserole dishes in the preheated oven for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry tortillas until crisp, turning once. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
  5. Remove tortillas with tongs and place one in each warmed casserole dish.
  6. Discard oil from the skillet. Add butter and melt over medium-low heat.
  7. Crack eggs into the skillet and cook to your liking (fried or scrambled).
  8. Top each tortilla with cooked eggs, salt, pepper, tomato slices, avocado, and salsa.
  9. Sprinkle with onion and cheese.
  10. Place casserole dishes under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  11. Carefully remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious Bandito Eggs!
