No Bake Nutella Balls (chocolate truffles)

You can crush the graham crackers yourself, but I just purchased a box of crumbs.

Huevos Rancheros is a popular Mexican breakfast. It means Rancher's Eggs and it's yummy!

Huevos Rancheros
Makes 1 serving

Ingredients

1 8" whole wheat tortilla
1 large egg
butter
salt & pepper
pinch of oregano
3 tablespoons store bought salsa
2 tablespoons canned black beans, rinsed & drained
1/8 teaspoon ground chipotle powder or to taste
1/2 oz shredded sharp cheddar

Directions

Preheat oven to 425F
Fry egg in a little butter and sprinkle with salt, pepper and oregano. I like my yolk runny but not the whites. Cook it slightly less than you want it in the end.
Place the tortilla on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Place the egg on top.
Mix salsa, beans and chipotle powder in a bowl then place around the egg. Sprinkle cheese on top and bake until cheese is melted. Remove from oven and top with chopped avocado.
