Chilaquiles… I could eat them all day, everyday. It’s a very simple and quick dish that leaves you satisfied and longing for more.
It’s eaten at breakfast and/or dinnertime, and can be served with either red or green sauce. You can top it off to your heart’s contempt with soured cream, cheese, coriander, avocado…
They’re usually paired with refried beans, or cooked beans (see this post for more information on Mexican beans)
Hungry? Don’t worry! Chilaquiles are versatile and easy to make, learn how to make them here!
They can easily be adapted to meet various diets: don’t add chicken for a vegetarian version, use gluten free tortillas for a GF version…
I love to pair this dish with a nice cup of mexican style hot chocolate: don’t worry, it’s not spicy hot chocolate! It’s a very rich, authentic and traditional version of hot chocolate. After all, Mexico was where chocolate was first grown and drunk!
As always, provecho!
What a beautiful blog! Your photography is gorgeous. The food looks so good I’d like to bite right into my monitor. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Mary! I’m quite glad you enjoy it 🙂
Oh man, I could eat chilaquiles every day, too! I have to be satisfied with making & eating them nearly every weekend instead… 🙂
Same here! What sauce do you top them with, red or green?
Always with roasted green tomatillo salsa. (It’s my girlfriend’s recipe, but that didn’t stop me from posting it on my blog!)
Green is the way to go 🙂 I’ll try your green salsa recipe sometime then, and tell you what I think!
Sounds good! We used to boil the tomatillos, but now we always roast them (along with the onion, garlic, and jalapeño), so I edited the recipe after originally posting it. The roasting is easier AND tastes much better. : )
your eggs look so pretty!!! I always over cooked my sunny side up egg! haha
I was raised in New Mexico and I really miss Mexican food! (I live in the countryside in Japan now) I am excited to find your blog and will try to make Chilaquiles! They look so good! I also want to try your refried beans as I have never made my own!! Thanks. I look forward to following you!
I’m glad you’re looking forward to making chilaquiles, and the beans! I’m sure they’ll turn out delicious; let me know how it goes! I look forward to following you as well!
Delisioso!
Indeed!
Wow, looks delicious! Chilaquiles have been on my list of things I want to try for a long time, but they are usually only on the breakfast menu at restaurants, and I’m not a morning person on weekends…may have to try making these at home!
Do try them! They are easy and satisfying 🙂 Let me know how they turn out, and thanks for the comment!
