MATT'S EASY BREEZY HUEVOS RANCHEROS
Ingredients:
  • Any kind of store bought salsa (or you can always make your own)
  • Huevos of course (that's eggs for those of you who don't have Spanish speaking friends)
  • Any kind of Mexican cheese or a similar substitute (get creative)
  • Secret Weapon: Valentina Salsa Picante
Directions: On low heat, melt butter and/or heat olive oil in a non-stick frying pan to make cleaning a breeze.  Next, add just enough salsa to cover the bottom of the pan and gently mix together.  Break as many eggs as needed right into the salsa.  Add a sprinkle of water and cover.  This traps the moisture inside the pan and lightly steams the tops of the eggs for more of an over medium feel.  Want a runnier yolk?  Simply cover for a shorter period of time.  When the eggs are nearly done, sprinkle some of the cheese over the top, cover again until melted, and serve.  If you can find it, spice things up a bit with my favorite Mexican hot sauce, Valentina, table-side.  It's quick and easy, and anyone, I mean anyone, can do it.
