Garnish and Accompaniments:
- 1 cup salsa

Instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add diced onion and red bell pepper, sautéing for 5 minutes until vegetables soften and become translucent.
- Introduce minced garlic to the skillet, stirring constantly for 1 minute until the aroma releases and garlic turns golden.
- Pour 15 ounces of drained black beans into the skillet. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon ground cumin and 1 teaspoon chili powder over the beans. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Stir bean mixture thoroughly and cook for 5 minutes at medium heat until beans are completely warmed through.
- Remove bean mixture from heat and transfer to a separate dish. Keep warm while preparing eggs.
- Use a clean skillet and heat it over medium-high temperature. Crack 4 large eggs directly into the pan.
- Cook eggs to your preferred style (sunny-side up, over-easy) for 3-4 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper.
- Warm 4 corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds per side until they become flexible.
- Arrange 2 tortillas on each serving plate. Distribute black bean mixture evenly across tortillas.
- Carefully place 2 cooked eggs atop the bean mixture on each plate.
- Drizzle 1 cup of salsa over the eggs, covering them generously.
- Garnish with sliced avocado and freshly chopped cilantro.
- Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra zesty touch.
Notes
- Swap canned black beans for freshly cooked ones to control sodium and enhance flavor, making the dish more wholesome.
- Use cast iron skillet for perfect bean and egg cooking, which helps develop deeper, richer flavors and provides even heat distribution.
- For gluten-free version, replace corn tortillas with cauliflower flatbread or large lettuce leaves as a lighter alternative base.
- When selecting eggs, choose free-range or farm-fresh options for better taste and nutritional profile, which elevates the entire breakfast experience.
