Microwave Huevos Rancheros Recipe

I love a good quick breakfast and have been known to make quite a few variations on the classic microwave egg mug. But it’s easy to get sick of the same combinations eggs, veggies, cheese, repeat. So a few days back when I found myself sick of virtually all my go-to combinations and simultaneously seriously craving huevos rancheros, I came up with these. A simple 2 minute dish, made all in the microwave. Top it with some avocado, add some beans or veggies, mix things up.

Really like this recipe - love the enchilada flavor! It does take quite a bit more time for my microwave to fully cook the egg. And next time I'm going to add some veg to the mix but super tasty!
