Preheat oven to 400°F.

Cut tortillas into 6 triangles and place on a greased baking sheet, spray with cooking spray.

Bake for about 10 minutes, flipping halfway.

Blend all salsa roja ingredients and pour into a large skillet, bring to a simmer.

Mash avocados with seasonings and lime juice, place in the fridge to chill.

Whisk together crema ingredients and place in the fridge to chill.

Once the sauce has thickened and the baked tortilla chips have cooled and crisped up, add them to the sauce just to warm them back up (wet but not soggy).

Fry the egg at this point if adding it.

Plate the chilaquiles and add your sides and toppings, including fresh guacamole and crema drizzle.
