Breakfast hashes were all the rage.

Last year that is.

Wait. They still are the rage?! Eff. Um, well. Efffffffffff. Just go with us for a minute.

We think we spent 32 weekends last year browsing the brunch menu at diners looking for the next greatest hash concoction. Duck fat potatoes? You bet! Caramelized brussel sprouts? Bring ’em on! Sweet potato and chorizo? Yes, please! We were hash obsessed. We totally just sounded like a Denver pot head right there, didn’t we? Eff.

Anyways, Mr. B and we are finally back into our brunching schedule and noticed chilaquiles have been popping up on menus at our fav restaurants. At first, we didn’t even know what chilaquiles were, and we're pretty sure we chainsawed the pronunciation. We think we said, “CHIL-A- QUILL-IQUES. Yes, because the dish comes with a quill and paper.

So, rather than risk sounding like someone from 1786 , we told Mr. B to order the chilaquiles and we'll order the breakfast burrito. Then, when the waiter isn’t looking we will switch and no one will know (cue maniacal laugh)! This is the point where Mr. B rolls his eyes, orders the dish, and ends up eating it because it is savory. Does anyone else ever have this problem? Sigh.

Since yours truly didn’t get any CHIL-A-QUILL-IQUES, we decided to whip some up at home. This version is all kinds of lighter, which means an entire skillet consumed is totally kosher. The whole point of the chilaquiles is the sauce ususally a mixture of tomatoes, garlic, onion, and our personal favorite, chipotle adobo peppers. All of this is simmered together and then tossed with tortilla chips, quinoa, black beans, and fried eggs for good measure.

It’s all the rage. it’s written with quill and ink.
