Huevos 'Ranch'eros
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 8 corn tortillas, each cut into 8 wedges
- 1 1 -ounce packet ranch dressing mix
- 5 plum tomatoes

- Add the tomatoes, onion and garlic and cook, turning, until the vegetables are charred, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Squeeze the garlic from its skin and cut the onion and tomatoes into chunks.
- Transfer to a blender; pulse with remaining dressing mix (about 2 tablespoons), the chipotles and half of the beans until smooth.
- Heat the olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat.
- Add the pureed mixture and the remaining beans and cook until thick, about 5 minutes.
- Keep warm.
- Make the eggs: Melt 1 teaspoon butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Fry the eggs in batches until the whites are set, adding more butter as needed.
- Divide the sauce among shallow bowls; top each serving with 2 eggs, some ranch chips and avocado.
- Sprinkle with cilantro and cheese, if desired.
