Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil , divided


• 1 small yellow onion , diced


• 1/8 teaspoon salt


• 2 to 3 garlic cloves , minced


• 1 can (15-ounces) dark red kidney beans, well rinsed and drained


• 1/2- teaspoon ground cumin , or to taste


• 1/4- teaspoon chili powder , or to taste


• 1/2- teaspoon dried oregano


• salt and fresh ground pepper , to taste


• 8 eggs


• 8 (6-inch) whole wheat tortillas, warmed


• 1 can (10-ounces) Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies


• 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat Mexican-Blend Cheese


• 1 avocado , diced

• fresh parsley or fresh cilantro , chopped, for garnish

Instructions

• In a large skillet heat 1 tablespoon olive oil.


• Add diced onions and season with salt; cook for 3 minutes, or until translucent.


• Add minced garlic and continue to cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.


• Stir in beans; season with cumin, chili powder, oregano, salt and pepper.


• Continue to cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until beans have softened.


• Remove from heat, and using the back of a fork or a potato masher, mash the beans until they resemble chunky mashed potatoes. Set aside.


• If you want smoother beans, return to heat and add 1/4-cup water; simmer until beans are thick and of spreading consistency. Set aside.


• In a large skillet, heat remaining olive oil over medium-high heat.


• Break eggs and gently slide into skillet, one at a time. (In my skillet, I can fit about 4 eggs at a time.)


• Reduce heat to low and cook slowly until whites are completely firm and yolks begin to thicken but are not hard.


• Carefully slide a spatula under each egg and flip; Cook until desired doneness. Add more olive oil as needed.

ASSEMBLE

• Add diced tomatoes & green chilies over the eggs.


• Sprinkle with cheese.


• Add diced avocados and squeeze fresh lemon juice over each prepared taco.


• Garnish with parsley or cilantro.
