Get ready for the ULTIMATE BREAKFAST!
Forget that trendy avocado toast, these Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Tostadas with Avocado Salsa Verde are where it’s at!
I know I just said to forget avocado toast, but I was being a bit dramatic.
Let’s not forget avocado toast. Let’s just embrace this tostada awesomeness with open arms.
These tostadas are like your average avocado toasts, but on steroids. But not in an intimidating way, just a more delicious way.
The best thing going on with this breakfast… Avocado Salsa Verde. Exclamation Point.
Those gorgeous California Avocados are the star in this super simple sauce. Check out all that green!
The sauce is full of avocado, jalapeño, tomatillos, cilantro, lime juice and salt. Suuuuuuuper simple.
Just toss it all in a food processor or blender and pulse a few times.
BAM! The tastiest sauce you’ve ever laid your eyes on.
Obvi it’s great on top of eggs, but it’s also totes fantastic as a chip dip, or in some saucy tacos. Just sayin’.
I already have a Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Sandwich recipe on my site (which is fab), but I’ve been making these tostadas a lot lately, and I neeeeeeeeded to share them with you.
Since our backyard chickens are pumping out eggs faster than we can consume, I’m all about bringing breakfast to the dinner table. That’s how these happened.
Then they happened again. And again. And ag- you get the idea.
My husband is what some would call a connoisseur of Mexican food. So when I asked him how he liked these Huevos Rancheros he quickly replied that they are NOT Huevos Rancheros.
Umm… yeah they are.
No. They are not.
How are these not Huevos Rancheros?!
Because they are on a tostada. They are Huevos Rancheros Tostadas.
<Insert biggest eye roll. ever.>
How do you like your Huevos Rancheros Tos-ta-da?
It’s really good.
You guys… I can’t even. This man.
I love him to death. 😉
Just about as much as you’re going to love these tostadas! Get it!

Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Tostadas with Avocado Salsa Verde
Ingredients
For the Avocado Salsa Verde:
- 2 medium tomatillos, husked and rinsed
- 1/2 jalapeno, sliced (seeds removed if you prefer less spice)
- 1 large California Avocado, peeled and pit removed
- 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, packed
- 1/2 lime, juiced
- salt, to taste
For the Black Beans:
- 1 black beans, 14.5 oz can, mostly drained
- 1/2 tsp each: Chili Powder, Garlic Powder, Cumin
- 1/2 lime, juiced
- pinch salt
For the Tostadas:
- 8 corn tostada shells, crunchy
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, finely shredded
- 8 eggs
- salt and pepper
- cotija cheese
- cilantro, fresh
- cherry tomatoes, sliced
Instructions
For the Avocado Salsa Verde:
- Combine all the ingredients in a food processor or blender and pulse a few times, until mixture is mostly combined, but still slightly chunky. Set aside. (can be made up to a week ahead of time, store in an air-tight container in the fridge)
For the black beans:
- Combine all the ingredients in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. These can be made up to 4 days ahead of time. (store in an air-tight container in the fridge)
For the Tostadas:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with tinfoil and lightly spray with cooking spray. Place the tostada shells in an even layer on the baking sheet.
- Spread about 1 to 2 tablespoons of the black bean mixture over the top of each tostada, then sprinkle with a couple tablespoons of shredded cheese. Bake for 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
- Meanwhile cook your eggs to your preference. The eggs pictured are "sunny side up." Lightly coat a skillet with non-stick spray and heat over medium-high heat. Crack the egg into the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until whites have set and yolk is still runny.
- Place cooked eggs on top of the hot tostadas, top with the avocado salsa verde, sliced tomatoes, fresh cilantro and a little cotija cheese. Enjoy!

This is my hands down favorite recipe for huevos! I get a ton of compliments on it. I do cheat a bit and use a premade salsa verde with the avocado and it’s still fantastic. We love this!
I love that! Thank you for the comment!
I didn’t have black beans, so I used canned refried beans instead. Came out great. Delicious breakfast!
Love that! Great idea. So glad you enjoyed it Carlos.
Easy to make. Great breakfast! Very tasty! I didn’t have any black beans, so I used canned refried beans instead. It came out great.
Love it! I used refried beans & also did a little sour cream drizzle over it Have loved a lot of your recipes.
Sounds fantastic! So glad you enjoyed it!
Is there I can put this together and take to work for the crew? I start at 7am. So can this be assembled the night before and reheated it the mic or toaster oven?
All the components can be prepped ahead of time, then assembled just before eating! Cook the eggs just before eating though, that’s the only thing I wouldn’t make ahead of time.
anyone try it with red tomatoes, not tomatillos? Curious!
Seriously?? You made it through this ENTIRE recipe without correcting your husband on their REAL name?? They should properly (and with great, sweeping, grand gestures) be called “Huevos Rancheros Toast – TA DAs!!” Because they are that spectacular. Really.
That is not huevos rancheros. Those are bean tostadas with avocado and and an egg on top. But, the recipe is delicious.
i just found this recipe on pinterest & i’m literally droooooling. i will totally surrender avo toast for these breakfast tostadas any day! plus, i can’t imagine anything more wonderful than avocado salsa verde. omg yum! can’t wait to try!!

I made this for breakfast today and my husband said “I’m glad that my wife and the internet are friends!” He really liked it. I thought it was messy and difficult to eat, but sort of worth it because it was delicious.
Napkins are definitely required, but oh-so-worth it! 🙂 Glad you enjoyed it Bethy!
Looks delicious! Definitely going to give this a try..
P.S. My husband would totally say the same thing.. ‘This is not Huevos Rancheros.’
