Tamales & Eggs

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tamales

    Steam the tamales according to package instructions or until heated through. This usually takes about 20-30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and bell pepper, and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Season

    Stir in the diced tomato, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the tomatoes are softened.

  4. 4

    Cook the Eggs

    In a bowl, whisk the eggs. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the vegetables and scramble until fully cooked, about 3-5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    Place the steamed tamales on plates, top with the scrambled eggs and vegetable mixture. Garnish with chopped cilantro and avocado slices.
