How to Make Missy's Mexican Style Eggs

  1. Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C). Wrap 4 corn tortillas tightly in foil and place in the oven to keep warm.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of your favorite canned beans (black, pinto, or refried) over medium-low heat until warmed through.
  3. In a large oven-safe skillet (10-inch), heat 1/2 cup enchilada sauce or salsa over medium heat until simmering.
  4. Crack 4 large eggs gently into the simmering sauce, spacing them evenly.
  5. For runny yolks, leave the egg tops uncovered. For firmer yolks, spoon 1-2 tablespoons of sauce over each egg.
  6. Cover the skillet, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until eggs are cooked to your liking.
  7. Remove the tortillas from the oven. Divide the warmed beans among the tortillas.
  8. Carefully spoon the eggs and remaining sauce over the beans.
  9. Top each tortilla with 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1 tablespoon chopped scallions, salt, and pepper to taste.
