Homemade salsa can be fresher and healthier, while canned options are often less expensive.

cheese

🥗Healthier: low-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Low-fat cheese reduces calories, while processed cheese can be more affordable.

sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

Greek yogurt is a healthier alternative with more protein.

Heat oil in a deep fryer to 350 degrees.

Deep-fry corn tortillas until crispy, then drain on paper towels.

Heat olive oil in a pan and add the store-bought salsa, frying it briefly.

Add the fried tortillas to the pan with the salsa, folding them to soak up the sauce without breaking them.

In a separate pan, heat olive oil and fry 2 eggs to desired doneness.

Thin the Mexican sour cream with a little milk and salt to taste, then fold it in or serve it on top of the dish.

Garnish with thinly sliced radish, white onion, and cilantro.
