chilaquiles!
Near as I can tell from the internets, “chilaquiles” means basically any dish with soggy tortilla chips. Here is mine:
Ingredients:
3 corn tortillas, about 6″ in diameter. (If you don’t have these, use Tostitos, taco shells, whatever). They can be stale.
1/3 cup green taco sauce
2-3 Tbsp green onion, sliced
2 chipotle peppers, sliced
1/3-1/2 cup old cheddar cheese, grated
Pickled sliced jalapenos, to taste (I used about 6, and diced them)
1 Tbsp butter
3 large eggs, beaten
Soak the tortillas in the taco sauce for at least 10 minutes, then cut or break them up into strips or chunks. Heat butter in frying pan or skillet until pan is greasy. Add all ingredients. Cook until delicious. Eat!

Liz, you should pester me to find a certain recipe I have lyin’ around here someplace. I believe its name speaks for itself: chilaquiles casserole. Bringin’ the midwest to bear on those south-of-the-border sensibilities. Awwww, yeahhhh.
