Huevos Rancheros Tostadas makes a great breakfast for dinner, or bunch meal. Topped with black beans, a from scratch salsa, then topped with a fried egg cojita cheese and serrano peppers

If you want to speed up the process, you you can use something like a can of rotel [affilliate] to speed up the process. I’ve done it both ways and it comes out great.

Huevos Rancheros Tostadas makes a great brunch idea, or a “put your own breakfast together meal”. Which are my personal favorites. Lay all the food out on the table, and let everyone else stack their tostadas as they like.

Food is on the table in a lot less time and I’m not rushing to get everything put together and worrying if my first tostada has gone cold!

And mom and dad can eat well too!
