Yummy

I know some of you also get the "Eating Well" magazine. Last night I thought I'd try a recipe I saw in the June issue, Huevos Rancheros Verdes. (Just think: if I'd added ham, it would be . . . ) I was kind of late getting started and didn't have all of the correct ingredients. So this is what I ended up doing:

I used tortilla chips, and put a handful on each plate. I put grated cheddar on top of each pile of chips. I mixed refried beans with red salsa and heated it up. I made the lettuce / scallion / cilantro / lime /oil / salt and pepper mixture. 

I had each person microwave their plates until the cheese was melted. Then they added a glop of the bean mixture and sprinkled on some of the lettuce mixture. To top it off, I fried each person an egg for the "peak" of their tortilla mountain. 

Well, it does sound a little odd--but everyone loved it. Even the kids ate it all. Milena says, "I'm picky, and even I loved it!" Tal said, "Yum."

I have also made two of the freezer pop recipes in the August issue, and they were both hits. I would love to hear about any recipes you guys have tried.
