Servings: 4
- 4 corn tortillas 80g
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons olive oil 10ml
- 2 cups refried black beans 360g
- ½ cup sugar-free marinara sauce 120 ml
- ½ cup crumbled fresh cheese 60g
- ½ cup green peas cooked (80g)
- · Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Toppings
- 1 large plantain for air frying 200g
- Sliced jalapeños or other hot peppers
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place tortillas directly on the oven rack and bake for 8-10 minutes until crispy, flipping halfway through. Set aside.
Heat refried black beans in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally until warm. If beans are too thick, thin with 1-2 tablespoons of water.
If using plantains: Peel and slice diagonally into ½-inch pieces. Place in an air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Warm marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Heat ½ teaspoon oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Fry eggs in batches, using ¼ teaspoon oil per two eggs. Cook until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 2-3 minutes.
Place one crispy tortilla on a plate; spread 1 tablespoon black beans on the tortilla; top with a fried egg; add 1 tablespoon marinara sauce; sprinkle with 1/2 tablespoon crumbled fresh cheese; add 1/2 tablespoon green peas. Garnish with hot peppers if using. Note: Serve immediately while tortillas are crispy and eggs are hot.
