These delicious keto huevos rancheros will kick up your breakfast a notch. will A quick and easy brunch that takes 20 minutes and uses only one pan!
Huevos rancheros is a mexican breakfast dish that is typically served mid-morning: the time we know as brunch.
The original dish consists of fried eggs served on top of tortillas, topped with fresh salsa and served alongside beans, rice, and sliced avocado.
Now, if you eat paleo or keto, your typical corn or flour tortillas are going to be a no-go. But why shouldn't we still get to enjoy our own version of this delicious breakfast dish?
I bring you: keto huevos rancheros. They're gluten free, grain free, dairy free, and paleo too. Everybody wins!
I had a few of these awesome tortillas leftover from when I made these fish tacos, and I wasn't sure what to do with them - I wanted to use them for something other than a taco. I saw the leftover chorizo from the pizza with that awesome crust, and a ripe avocado that needed eating, and it was game on.
If you're looking to make your own tortillas rather than order some, Gnom Gnom has a recipe for keto tortillas here.
I like to make a big batch of chorizo and keep it on hand, as I use it in a lot of different ways. Once you've got your chorizo made and cooked, it's all downhill from there.
Toast up your tortilla, top it with some chorizo, top the chorizo with a fried egg, a bit of salsa, and some chopped up avocado, and you've got yourself some keto huevos rancheros.
My favorite part about this recipe is that you can make the whole thing using one pan. As long as you heat everything in the right order, one pan and 20 minutes is all you need, and gourmet brunch is served!
Or, if you're me, dinner. Because there's nothing better than breakfast food for dinner.
