tortilla chips

🥗Healthier: baked tortilla chips

💰Cheaper: homemade tortilla chips

Baking reduces fat, while homemade options can be more economical.

sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: plain yogurt

Greek yogurt is lower in fat and higher in protein.

cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: queso fresco

Reduced-fat options are healthier, while queso fresco is often more affordable.

Remove seeds from the 7 Chile's wahee.

Boil 2 tomatoes and the 7 Chile's in water for 8 to 10 minutes until the skin starts peeling.

Blend the boiled tomatoes and chiles with chicken flavor bouillon until smooth.

Saute half of the sliced onion in olive oil.

Add half of the blended sauce to the sautéed onion and let it boil.

Add tortilla chips to the pan and then pour the rest of the sauce over them.

Cover the pan and let the cheese melt on top of the chips.

Fry 4 eggs to your liking, preferably sunny-side up.

Serve the chilaquiles topped with sliced avocado, fried eggs, and cilantro.
