I have an ongoing search of the world for the best Huevos Rancheros. There are so many, many versions out there and I thoroughly enjoy trying them all. I have gotten my youngest son on board as my Huevos Rancheros search buddy. When we travel we plan a breakfast route everyday to try as many as we can. Unfortunately, in the UK it is a dismal trek. I have yet to find a good Huevos Ranchero here so I came up with this super fast easy Huevos Rancheros recipe to start the week of Cinco de Mayo right.
