  1. Do beans and eggs make an edible combination? I was thinking of trying bean burrito filling (refried
    beans, chili powder, onions, cumin, orgeno, green chilis) with eggs - maybe mixed with scrambled or
    in an omelet. Anyone ever tried anything like this? I could just give it a try but hate to waste the
    food if it's not edible.

    TIA

    Anything's edible if you like it. Try it and see. I don't see why it wouldn't be ok. Doesn't sound
    gross. (at least to me)

    the Green Burrito chain used to (maybe still does) make their breakfast burritos as refried beans,
    scrabled eggs, hot sauce. it always worked for me.

    sometimes i'll do a breakfast burritos that's (trader joe's 89c) flour tortilla, (vons no fat)
    refried beans, an over-east or scrabled egg, and (salsa brava) hot sauce.

    guilt is reduced if you do a bike ride before or after.

    It sounds like a menu item at the restaurant I frequent. I have one every few weeks.

    Breakfast burritos/tacos often contain beans in addition to the eggs, sausage, potato, cheese, etc.
    Very tasty!

    And breakfast plates in Mexican/Tex-Mex places usually include refried beans and rice to accompany
    the migas, huevos rancheros, etc.

  7. Terrific for breakfast. Use a large corn tortilla for more taste. Add chopped tomatoes, cheese,
    bacon and anything else. Great and fast. Matt

    Black bean paste and huevos rancheros is quite big in Central America.

    Don't forget the hot sauce.

    That's just one version of the local breakfast burrito. Another being egg, bacon, potato and chile
    sauce of some sort or else just diced green chiles.

    Kind of an excess of protein of course, but tasty anyway LOL!

    I grew up eating beans / eggs / hashbrowns, for breakfast although the beans were "Boston
    Baked bean" type, and it didn't hurt me, ( I'm 6' 51/2" and weigh in at 265lbs <g>.. ) Happy

    Honestly! Bit of overkill to put mornay sauce on lobster Thermidor LOL. It doesn't go with
    spam at all.

    Oh Hell yes! One of my favorite breakfasts.

    It started with huevos rancheros ...fried eggs & salsa... with a side order of refried beans at some
    taquiria. I liked it so much I tried it at home. Loving both eggs over easy and refried beans, I
    just cut to the chase. I heat up some refritos, slide the fried eggs on top, puncture the yolks, and
    top the whole thing with salsa cruda. An ice cold beer, some warm flour tortillas, and I'm ready to
    read the Sunday funnies ...or snooze till noon... whichever comes first. 🙂

    Anything's edible if you like it. Try it and see. I don't see why it wouldn't be ok. Doesn't sound
    gross. (at least to me)

    I tried it in an omelet. Not great but not bad. I used three eggs
    - two and a little less beans would have been better. I'll try it again one day.

    Yeah, go for it. When in doubt. Try it! I've certainly had some flops doing that but I've also had
    some pretty good results as well.

  18. With eggs in the morning, I will open a can of either pinto or black beans (Goya if you prefer) and
    add a teaspoon of some puree of Chipotle (just grind up a can of Chipotle with Adobe sauce and keep
    it in your refrigerator).

    If you like the taste of chipotle, you can also have on hand to add to your eggswhile they are
    cooking, a butter which has been mixed with a little of this chipotle puree.

    A tortilla is a good choice for bread. You can if you want spread this butter/puree mixture on your
    tortilla or put honey on it. A pre-made large Costco pita cut in half and put in the toaster is
    great with honey on it too as a little desert for this breakfast.
