For our family, it is very important to keep our Hispanic heritage alive. We are very excited to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month every year, which is observed across America from September 15th through Ocbober 15th. September 15th marks the Independence Day of our own country, Guatemala, along with other Central American countries so we always start Hispanic Heritage Month by celebrating Guatemala and our traditions.
When I remember my family or think about my country, one of the first things that comes to mind is food: tamales, tortillas, pepián, champurradas, buñuelos and torrejas. Food is not only tied to traditions but also to memories, to family, to culture, and to your own identity. Hispanic Heritage Month gives our family the perfect excuse to talk about our culture and share favorite authentic dishes, flavors, and ingredients not only from our home country of Guatemala but also from other Latin American countries.
One of our favorite foods is avocados. Avocados are a big staple in Guatemalan and Latin American cuisine in general and today I wanted to share a little twist on a traditional recipe. Huevos Rancheros (which can be translated as “rancher’s eggs”) is a classic Mexican breakfast recipe but is also very popular in Guatemala and one of my favorite breakfast dishes. For this version of Huevos Rancheros, I decided to serve thee eggs over avocado toast, making a breakfast favorite even better because everything is better if you add avocado: that is just a fact!
You can celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month by elevating your avocado toast with your favorite Latin American flavors! You can visit Toast Your Heritage and create your own avocado toast recipe to celebrate your Hispanic heritage and add your favorite Latino ingredients!
For this recipe, I used Avocados From Mexico. I love Avocados From Mexico’s Hass avocados and I always have some at home because Avocados From Mexico are always delicious and always fresh and in season. I also used Bimbo® Bread, which is yet another product that always brings me fond memories of my childhood as my mom always had pan Bimbo® at home and its soft texture and smell always makes me feel closer to those happy times as a kid back in Guatemala.
HUEVOS RANCHEROS AVOCADO TOAST
INGREDIENTS
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup of red salsa (store bought or homemade)
- 1 slice of Bimbo® Bread
- 1 Avocado From Mexico
- Lime juice
- Queso fresco
- Cilantro
- Sea salt
- Freshly cracked pepper
- Tabasco hot sauce
DIRECTIONS
1. Crack the eggs into a pan and cook until the tops of the whites are set but the yolk is still runny.
2. Fry the salsa in a frying pan using a tablespoon of butter until the tomato is cooked and the salsa thickens, about 2-3 minutes on medium high heat. You can also make salsa ranchera from scratch if you want to.
3. Place a slice of Bimbo® Bread in a toaster.
4. Mash the Avocado From Mexico, leaving some chunks (I like my avocado toast chunky). Add lime juice, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper.
5. Spread a thick layer of avocado over the toast.
6. Place the sunny side up eggs in the middle of the toast and spoon some salsa ranchera on top.
7. Sprinkle with crumbled queso fresco. You can also add a dash of Tabasco® Sauce for some extra heat.
8. Huevos Rancheros are traditionally served with a side of black beans.
Avocado toast has to be one of the best things you can eat, simple and versatile. I could eat avocado toast every day. This Huevos Rancheros Avocado Toast recipe came out amazing and everyone loved it! I added some Tabasco® Chipotle Pepper Sauce to mine to give it some more flavor and just a little kick.

Here is a meal I would love to sit Down and enjoy. We love all the ingredients and would totally different from our usual meals.
We have a lot of friends from Latin and South America so we’ve been celebrating Hispanic heritage month along with them. We add avocado to a lot of our dishes so I can’t wait to try this recipe!
This looks like a delicious breakfast idea! Shoot, it could work for lunch or dinner too!
I LOVE guacamole!!! It has all that good fat in it too. This looks so yummy and would be a great snack as well.
Yes! That’s not toast, that’s a work of art! Talk about a power breakfast.
This looks delicious, confession – I have yet to have avocado ever! I know that I keep seeing delicious looking recipes though like this, I must try it!
Yum, my favorite breakfast is huevos. I need to get to the market and pick up some avocados!
This sounds AMAZING! Avocado toast is of course everything, and add the huevos rancheros and you have the perfect brunch!

A mi me encanta el aguacate, asi que me imagino, que esto debe ser delicioso…Ahora voy a tener que probarlos!
Not only does this sound amazing, it looks good too. I’ve recently become an avocado fan. I know from nursing school that our taste buds change every 7 years. This is the first time I like avocado’s and I’m taking advantage of that and finding recipes like this to try. They are so healthy for us.
I really need to learn to enjoy avocado. I have yet to jump on the bandwagon for it. It looks delicious however and makes me want to give it a try!
I’ve never had Huevos Rancheros, but adding avocado seems like an interesting take on the dish.
