Ranch-Style Eggs


Ingredients:

4 eggs
1 cup of salsa
4 tortillas
1/2 cup of shredded Jack cheese

Preheat oven to 325.

To prepare sunny-side up eggs, heat sprayed non-stick skillet over medium heat.  Carefully add each to skillet.  Add about 2 tablespoons of water.  Cover and cook until egg whites set and yolks are still moist. Remove eggs and keep warm.

Heat salsa in the skillet over medium-high heat until it boils.  Reduce heat to low.
