Ingredients

  • 4 Corn Tortillas 6" Round
  • 2 cups cooked kidney beans
  • 3 tablespoons chopped green onion ~3 spears
  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil if vegan
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper ~1/3 pepper
  • 2 pinches baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 8 ounce package extra firm tofu
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 4 tablespoons canned green chile

Instructions

  • Remove the tofu from the package and press under something heavy to squeeze out some of the extra moisture. Set aside to press while you start the beans.
  • To make the beans, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add beans, green onion, red bell pepper and broth. Simmer for 4-6 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and baking soda. Begin to mash the beans using the back of a wooden spoon and cook for another 2 minutes until liquid is absorbed an beans are well mashed.
  • Place the pressed tofu in a medium bowl. Using a butter knife, roughly chop into 1/2" pieces. Heat a non-stick skillet over low heat and add the tofu. Sprinkle with turmeric and cumin and stir to evenly coat. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until the tofu is no longer releasing excess moisture.
  • Toast the corn tortillas for 2-3 minutes in a toaster oven until crisp.
  • Assemble huevos rancheros by spreading the 1/4 of the bean mixture on a tortilla, then topping with 1/4 the "eggs", 1 tablespoon green chile and other desired toppings.
