Hello, fellow foodies!

I'm SO excited to bring you my favorite boozy brunch food - Chilaquiles! If you've never had them, you need to change that pronto!

There's so much to love about these Chilaquiles!

They'reVEGAN
Super YUMMY
Stupid EASY

I know Labor Day weekend has come to an end, but you're already one day closer to next weekend & making this for your next brunch. Heck - nobody's stopping you from making these right now. We ate them for dinner since I photograph everything in the late afternoon light.

If you have had Chilaquiles, you've most likely had them with eggs, cheese, or meat. You can add that of course, but I just serve mine alongside some plant-based proteins, like my favorite, made from scratch, refried black beans (recipe coming soon!) Plus, the Cilantro Lime Cashew Creme will have you saying, "cheese, who?" Hope you enjoy!

Chilaquiles

Ingredients

  • 5 stone-ground corn tortillas (we'll be using these to make the chips)
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 1/2 yellow onion, small diced
  • 2-3 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 serrano pepper (or less if you're sensitive to spice)
  • 1 6oz. can of tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup of veggie stock
  • Spices - I used salt & pepper to taste & added 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika. I seriously add this to everything.

Toppings
Red onion slices
Fresh cilantro
Avocado
Black beans
Lime wedges

Directions
Pre-heat the oven to 350 F

  1. Cut the corn tortillas into small triangles. Brush a little bit of olive oil on both sides & pop them in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Make sure to flip them halfway through!

  2. Saute your onions for about 3-5 minutes, on low/medium heat until translucent. Add garlic & pepper & saute for another 3 minutes. Add your spices, broth, & tomato paste - continue to saute for a few more minutes. (Optional) If you want a smooth & creamy sauce, you can blend the sauce in a blender, or food processor.

  3. Once the chips are done, you can add them to the sauce, coating quickly. Transfer everything to a plate & drizzle with cilantro lime cashew creme. Add some chopped red onions, avocado, salsa, & black beans for the ultimate breakfast feast!

  • Big pinch of salt
  • 1/2 T of honey

Cashew creme sounds like something I need to try out sometime soon. That would be a great addition to a lot of dishes.

It's pretty much my go to for everything haha I love it because you can change the spices/flavors and pretty much make it into any cream sauce you want!

love the idea of cashew creme, as I own a cashew tree. It is the juice from the cashew apple that i really love. I am now following you to see what you design next.

Woah! I wish I had a cashew tree! And I've never even seen a cashew apple - I need to google this! I'm following you now as well :)

you will find it very interesting, the cashew nut grows on the outside of the apple, the juice is much like a mango juice, so very nice.
