Sunday Breakfast: Chilaquiles

For this breakfast I started with the chilaquiles recipe in BittmanWorld, but I made a couple of changes:

  1. I added bacon (mmmm bacon)
  2. Bittman's technique for the tortillas is a bit fussy, I just dried them in the oven, cut them into strips, stirred them around in the residual bacon fat, then let them crisp up for a couple more minutes in the oven.
  3. I did temper the eggs before adding all of the sauce, though I'm not sure this makes a huge difference.
This is a goodly amount of work for breakfast, but the results were mighty nice. Plus due to numerous social engagements this weekend it ended up being the only cooking I could do.
