Presentation & Serving

Creating a haunted breakfast is a lot of fun! 🎃 Let me share some tips to make my Haunted House Huevos Rancheros extra special.

Start with a black plate to make the colors pop. It sets a spooky vibe.

Add the huevos rancheros right in the middle of the plate. The base layer is like a canvas!

Place a sprinkle of fresh cilantro on top. It adds a nice touch of green.

Next, position your spiderweb tortilla on the side. The shape gives it a haunted look!

For a creepy garnish, I like to add avocado slices in the shape of little bats.

You can also use olives for eyeballs. They look like tiny monster eyes peeking out! 👀

Here’s a quick list of my favorite equipment and ingredients for this:

• Equipment: Black plates, serving spoon, tortilla cutter
• Ingredients: Tortillas, eggs, black beans, salsa, avocado

When it’s time to serve, I like to light a candle to set the mood. The flickering light adds to the haunted theme.

Let me know if you have any haunting ideas! I’d love to hear how you make your breakfast boo-tiful! 🌟
