FLACO HUEVOS RANCHEROS WITH HOME-STYLE SALSA
In honor of Cinco de Mayo, I'm offering up my own spin on Huevos Rancheros. This is a lightened-up version that's great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The fresh salsa is a refreshing alternative and really brightens up an otherwise heavy dish.

Steps:
- For the salsa, mix the tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, lime juice and olive oil in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Toast the corn tortillas (I put them right in the toaster oven and they crisp up perfectly even).
- Fry eggs until over-easy.
- To assemble, top each tortilla with beans, egg and cheese. Broil until cheese melts. Finish with avocado, salsa and sour cream.

Steps:
- SALSA
- Roughly chop the tomatoes, onion, garlic and serrano chile.
- Add to your blender jar.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon thyme to the blender jar.
- Add 2 tablespoons of water.
- Blend until smooth. About 1 minute.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a saucepan to hot.
- Carefully, pour the contents of the blender into the saucepan with the hot oil. (Be careful, the liquid tends to spatter.)
- Simmer for about 10 minutes until the salsa is deep red in color and has thickened slightly.
- Salt to taste.
- TORTILLAS
- Pour 1/2 cup of cooking oil into a medium sized frying pan. The oil should be about 1/4 inch deep.
- Heat the oil to medium hot.
- Place the tortillas in the oil and fry for about 20 seconds on both sides. Fry them one at a time. Don't allow the tortilla to harden.
- Drain the tortillas of excess oil on paper towles and set aside.
- SUNNY SIDE UP EGGS
- Use the same cooking oil that you used to fry the tortillas to cook the eggs. Maintain the oil medium hot.
- Add two eggs to the hot oil and slightly tilt the pan to one side so that the eggs set closely together.
- Cook until the white are just cooked through and the yolks are still runny.
- SERVING
- Place 2 tortillas on your serving plate and add a good sized spoonful of refried beans.
- Gently place the eggs on the tortillas.
- Spoon the warm spicy tomato salsa over the eggs.
- Garnish the beans with 3 tortilla chips.
- Serve immediately.
