Healthy Happy Hungry

Fantastic fuel for a fit family...

Huevos Rancheros

The kids and I love breakfast foods.  However, my husband is not a breakfast person.  For him, the perfect breakfast is leftover dinner from the night before.  I totally cannot fathom that.  Growing up one of  *the best* dinners…was breakfast.  Pancakes and eggs with sausage for dinner.  Awesome.  Biscuits and gravy.  Yes, please!

The kids and I make breakfast for dinner when dad is gone on business trips.  We spent one summer when he was out of town making and taste testing pancake recipes.  (Whole wheat pancakes from America’s Test Kitchen was the winner, if your curious.)

But here is a breakfast for dinner that even he loves.  Huevos Raancheros.

I won’t claim that this is authentic.  We prefer flour tortillas and re-fried beans.  But it is quick and delicious.  Bonus – very minimal cooking equals not heating up the kitchen in the summer!

And the kids made it… sans help.
