Soak Homemade Tortilla Chips in Enchilada Sauce and top it with an egg for a Mexican classic – breakfast never tasted better!

A twist on nachos To Love!

Chilaquiles (chee-lah-KEE-lehs) is a savory Mexican dish usually served for breakfast. They are similar to Loaded Nachos in that they both start with a Tortilla Chip base, are covered in a sauce, and then topped with more delicious ingredients. Instead of using Nacho Cheese Sauce, chilaquiles are covered in a savory Mexican sauce. I used red Enchilada Sauce in this recipe to make chilaquiles rojos. They’re all topped with a fried egg and your favorite toppings making them incredibly delicious. Why we love them:

One of a kind. This is an authentic and unique Mexican breakfast like our Huevos Rancheros Recipe and Chorizo and Eggs! The flavors! The runny fried egg and savory enchilada-soaked tortilla chips are a match made in heaven. Showstopper. Not only is this beautiful to look at and filled with unique flavors, but it’s on the table in only 20 minutes!

Ingredients

Storing Leftovers

This is one of those dishes that is simply best when served hot and is harder to save and reheat.

STORE. If you do have leftovers, store them for a day in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat on the stovetop or microwave, but note they will most likely be soggy.
