Huevos with Black Bean Hash Browns is one of my favorite breakfast and brunch recipes. Seasoned hash browns get mashed black beans, onion and jalapeño mixed in for the perfect side to your morning eggs.
Some folks are all about tacos, burritos and nachos for Cinco de Mayo. You know, the usual (delicious) fare.
I say make an entire day of it and start Cinco de Mayo-ing in the morning!!
I am sure you’re thinking Huevos Rancheros! I eat that in the morning all the time! Or, some of the time. Or, occasionally when I go out for breakfast. I take that and raise you some spicy black bean hash browns. This will change your life and give regular old huevos rancheros a run for it’s money.
(by the way Kerby Lane Cafe in Austin, TX takes this whole Mexican-in-the-morning thing seriously. You can order–and I have–their famous Kerby Queso and chips for breakfast!! Well…I ordered them as an appetizer to my pancakes. Priorities!!
And I only mention this because it was life-changing and delicious and I thought if you’re ever in Austin you should consider the option.)

Another of my top-ten Tarateaspoon recipes! I absolutely love this one! We sometimes take a shortcut and don’t make the hash browns into patties – just serve them as loose hash browns.

I truly love your website.. Excellent colors & theme. Did you develop this amazing site yourself?
Please reply back as I’m hoping to create my own personal website and would like to find out
where you got this from or just what the theme is called.
Many thanks!

Thanks. It’s a WordPress site on the Brunch Pro Theme. Nope, I did not do it myself. I have hired various help for the site design and building. All the best!

Since I’m a savory for breakfast kind of girl , this dish was perfect for me. I’m also a sucker for salsa, which was delicious drizzled all over my Huevos with Black Bean hash!
