16ozcan Refried beansI prefer Old El Paso brand, but any brand will do
½Red Onionsliced thin
1cupshredded Mexican blend cheese
1cupsharp cheddar cheese
4TablespoonsSalsa
4large eggs
1cupSour Cream + 1 Tablespoon
1bunch Green onionssliced
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees
Lightly coat muffin tin with cooking spray.
Spray a small amount of cooking spray In non-stick frying pan, and heat over medium heat. Then start prepping your vegetables.
Put a tortilla in the pan and using non-metal tongs, move tortilla around for a few seconds, then flip it over. Warm the other side in the same way and quickly place in muffin tin. Press down gently and form into a cup shape. Repeat with the other tortillas until all of the cups are filled.
Place in oven on middle rack and bake shells for 5-7 minutes. Remove from oven and place on cooling rack. Leave oven on.
Combine refried beans and the 1 tablespoon of sour cream into microwave safe bowl and mix well. Heat for 30 seconds or so.
Next it is time to fill the cups. Divide evenly into the cups the ingredients in the following order: Refried beans (spread into bottom of cups), salsa, red onions, and both cheeses.
Return to oven and set timer for 10 minutes.
While cups are baking, fry 4 eggs to your liking.
Take cups out of oven, remove them from tin, and place on serving platter or individual plates. Carefully place a fried egg on top of each cup. Put a dollop of sour cream (or desired amount) on each cup and sprinkle green onions on top of the sour cream. There you have it - a little cup full of tasty goodness to get you through the day!
Notes
A little tip: Adding the sour cream to the refried beans makes it more "restaurant style".
You may want to use a muffin tin that will hold more than 4 tortilla cups, depending on how many people you are serving. If you choose to do so, you can just double the recipe for 8 servings, triple it for 12 servings, etc.
These can be partially made ahead of time! You can make the tortilla cups, and add the refried beans. The only thing you'll do differently, to avoid the shell getting soggy, is to add the other ingredients and follow the directions from that point above.
