I love Mexican food!! But a fondness for tortillas, cheese, and all things fried becomes a stumbling block when you decide to go sans grain, dairy and anything dipped in oil! Enter the egg... I mean huevo! There's no limit to the variations on this theme. I've made "Huevos a la Fiesta" of all kinds, but my favorite versions are the ones pictured.
Place a slice or two of deli chicken or turkey in a pan over medium heat (I usually spray a little Pam before I add the deli slices). Add an egg or two - you can either leave them sunny side up or you can beat them before you add to your pan. Pepper (a little salt if you're feeling naughty) to taste, add a tablespoon of water to the side of your pan so the eggs cook a little easier without burning your deli slices. Cover the pan. Once the eggs are nearly done, add any veggies you'd like warm. I also like to add a dollop of jalepeno Greek yogurt - my dairy exception - and some hot sauce like Chalula or Tobasco. You can either fold your creation like a taco/omelet or leave it open tostada style, then move the dish to your plate. Top with leafy greens, sprouts, any other veggies (I like tri colored bell peppers, jalepenos, avocado and tomatoes) and a wee bit more Greek yogurt.
