Day 1 Recipe 1 - by Teressa

What better way to start the morning with a great breakfast. It would have been great served to me in bed but, since that wasn't going to happen.
We made Huevos Rancheros. I say we because I can't make a sunny side up egg. So my lovely husband had to cook the eggs but I did the rest. This recipe came out of the Cook This Not That Cookbook.


As I gathered all the ingredients, I was visited by Tracy who asked where the meat was... Um... there is no meat in this recipe. Then he said you know I like to eat meat right? Yes dear... Also I was visited by Emma who wanted to help cook. Until she saw the beans and chipotles. Then she declared that she would not eat that and wanted a frozen waffle instead.


So I got busy. It was super fast and really quite easy to do. I started making the salsa that goes on top in my little food processor and then had to move to my blender. Cried while I cut the onions, Emma brought me swimming goggles to help. Then called Tracy to come cook the eggs. Here it is.... doesn't it look yummy? Well it was.


The critics had to say this...
Emma- I AM NOT EATING THAT!
Amanda- I don't like beans. but the egg and the salsa stuff was really good.
Tracy- It was good and would be a ton better with a pork chop
ME - OH this actually is GOOD!


Somethings I learned while making this recipe.

1. I have the dullest knife in the world!!! NO really! I think my finger could have chopped stuff better than that stupid knife.
2. I really do like black beans
3. When I don't know the recipe I make a huge mess by using every piece of kitchen equipment I own.

I hope this inspires you to try something new today....

LETS COOK!!!!!!!
