Our shortcut chilaquiles use corn chips to avoid frying tortillas. The sauce is a quick puree of canned fire-roasted tomatoes, onion, garlic and chipotle peppers. Serve with fried eggs, quick-pickled radishes, and an appetite for adventure.

  • Meanwhile, coat a large skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium. Add eggs, half at a time if necessary. Cook to desired doneness, turning if desired. Add eggs to top of tortilla mixture. Top with avocado, sour cream, Quick-Pickled Radishes and cilantro.
