Ingredients

• 6 large Eggs
• 15 oz (canned) Diced tomatoes with green chilies
• 0.5 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 medium Bell pepper, diced
• 1 tsp Cumin powder
• 1 tsp Paprika
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 2 tbsp Cilantro, chopped (optional)
• 0.25 cup Sour cream (optional)
• 0.5 medium Avocado, sliced (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Spray the inside of your crock pot with non-stick cooking spray or lightly grease it with oil.

Step 2

Pour the canned diced tomatoes with green chilies into the crock pot as the base layer.

Step 3

Add the finely chopped onion, garlic, and diced bell pepper evenly over the tomatoes.

Step 4

Sprinkle cumin powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the vegetable mixture, stirring gently to combine.

Step 5

Cover the crock pot and cook on high heat for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the vegetables to soften.

Step 6

Create six small wells in the vegetable mixture with the back of a spoon. Crack one egg into each well, taking care not to break the yolks.

Step 7

Cover and continue cooking on high heat for an additional 45-60 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny (or adjust to your preferred level of doneness).

Step 8

Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top and allow it to melt for the last 5 minutes of cooking.

Step 9

Carefully serve the huevos rancheros into bowls, scooping up the egg, sauce, and vegetables together.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, and slices of avocado, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
