Black Beans with Melted Cheese and Tortilla Chips |
Note: I decided to use dry black beans since it's so budget friendly. The restaurant black beans were very soft and almost "melt in your mouth" texture. My husband does not like it too "mushy" so I decided to make them tender but still retain their texture. If you like mushy you can use a slow cooker and let them cook down.

HUEVEOS RANCHEROS MADE WITH THE BLACK BEANS |

4 cups of dry black beans (soak in water overnight)
8 cups of chicken broth or vegetable broth (note)
1 large onions diced
1/2 cup of celery diced
3-4 green chilies diced (seed if you want less heat)
1 Tbs of grated garlic
1 Tbs of cumin powder
1 Tbs of chili powder (used for chili con carne)
1 tsp of dried oregano
red chili flakes to taste
salt and pepper to taste
Note: you can also substitute water and bullion equivalent for the broth. Remember to watch the salt if you do since bullion does intensify when you cook it down. Add water as needed to finish cooking the beans to your desired texture. **since I did not do these in a slow cooker... you may need less liquid.
Directions:
Step 1: Soak your beans overnight before you proceed. Then rinse and drain your beans.



To make the Huevos Rancheros simply toast a tortilla and fry an egg. Spoon black beans dish over tortillas then the egg and grated Mexican style cheese or Monterrey Jack Cheese. Add hot sauce or salsa. Enjoy.

ReplyDeleteLovely recipe, thank you
ReplyDeleteYum. I think I will finally use dried beans after reading this recipe. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteIt's funny because we are going to be making a very similar dish this week. Manatee is super excited for eggs for dinner while I am like you, I am excited for the black beans. :)
Mmm, huevos rancheros! Looks delicious on top of the beans - perfectly done!
ReplyDeleteI have not used my black beans from quite long time, now I am inspired to do so.
ReplyDeleteOh MY!! The title of this post caught my eye right away, and then the pics sold me. This is a MUST make!! Crave!!!
ReplyDeleteBlack Beans are my FAVORITE! You know I have never tried them with eggs? I am going to have to give it a try. I know if I throw some Jalapeno's in there my husband would love it! Great post!
ReplyDeleteI would love to have a bowl of those beans to nibble on right about now! It's quickly approaching that time of the day when I am always hungry!
ReplyDeleteOh Ramona this is one of my favorite bean dishes. I make mine the same way only I never added chili's. i am going to next time. This is making me hungry. Your photos really look great.
ReplyDeleteRamona, I love the pictures of your meals! It is so professional! This meal looks fantastic - beans are really popular here in Brazil. About Mexican food... Hmmmm... They are tasty, indeed, but as I am alergic to peppers and chilli, I cannot eat most of their specialities. :-( Big kiss, Paula

I didn't realize it but I've been looking for this recipe for ages. Beans are asoaking. Thank you. Another one that you hit out of the park.
ReplyDeleteMaking your own black beans is SO much better than canned black beans. The difference is HUGE! Love your black beans recipe and you know I love Huevos Rancheros! Great dish!
ReplyDeleteI am not a big fan of using canned black beans so making your own is surely the way to go! Your pictures are great and I bet this tasted delicious.

ReplyDeleteYum! It's 8am and I'm thinking I need to go make this for breakfast (canned black beans though, as I don't have the time for dried!) I love black beans, so I'm excited to see what else you do (I already saw your beans and rice and I want it now!) Maybe black bean curry :)
