HUEVOS CON NOPALES OR SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH CACTUS PADDLES



Huevos con Nopales or Scrambled Eggs with Cactus Paddles image

Put an exotic touch on your scrambled eggs by adding nopales or edible cactus! Nopales con huevos or cactus paddles with eggs is a perfect dish for breakfast or lunch.

Provided by Nancy Lopez-McHugh & MexicanMadeMeatless.com

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups of prepped and cubed nopales
½ a small white onion (about little more than ¼ cup, chopped)
2 large cloves of garlic (roughly chopped)
2 Roma tomatoes (chopped)
roughly chopped serrano pepper (to taste)
salt (to taste)
1.5 Tablespoons olive oil (or vegetable oil)
4 medium to large eggs (or as desired)

Steps:

  • In a large pan heat the oil then add the onion and saute until softened. Next, add the serrano and saute for 3 minutes while stirring constantly. Next, add the nopales and garlic and the salt (I used about ½ a teaspoon), and mix until well combined. Saute until the nopales have softened and released all of their viscous liquid, continue to cook until that liquid cooks off. Then add the tomatoes and cook for about 5 minutes. Stir to prevent burning. Then add the eggs and cook until the eggs are cooked to your desired texture.
  • Serve with warm tortillas on the side and if desired some refried beans, your favorite salsa, and avocado slices. You could also use it as a stuffing for gorditas or to make breakfast burritos. Enjoy!
