This might be just the ticket when you’re looking for something tasty and really fast.

　　

Ingredients

serves 2

　　2 cups of your favorite salsa or Blender Tomato Hot Sauce (page 244)

　　4 eggs

　　4 tortillas (corn or flour)

　　1 1/3 cups grated Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese

　　

Step 1

Pour the salsa into a lightly oiled medium skillet and bring it to a simmer. Make four wells in the salsa and break an egg (being careful not to break the yolk) into each one. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and poach the eggs for about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet on the stovetop.

　　

Step 2

Remove the skillet with the poached eggs from the heat, sprinkle the cheese on top, cover, and let sit long enough to melt the cheese. Transfer each egg, with a scoop of salsa, onto one of the warm tortillas and serve right away.
