You know how sometimes when you get a big plate of nachos, there are a few tortilla chips that soak up a bit of the salsa or cheese grease and they get a little soft but in a good, chewy, hot way? That's the essential bliss of a little mexican breakfast dish known as chilaquiles. Above, is a picture of my chilaquiles in salsa verde. Although I asked for them with chicken, they arrived without and let me tell you... I was just fine. Just fine.

Hand-made corn tortillas - thicker and softer than the ones we get in the good ol' U.S. of A absorb the salsa. A little cheese and crema on top... oh boy. You can also see a sweet little pile of refried black beans in the corner. Just a touch of shredded country cheese... not that you can taste it but doesn't it feel good to have a little shredded cheese on just about anything?

Yes. It does. It certainly does.
