Casa San Juan Mexican Breakfast Eggs

San Juan Spicy Black Beans and Fried Eggs

Another delicious Mexican breakfast whipped up by our mamasita, Virginia. The eggs in Mexico are super fresh, you can tell by the beautiful color of the yolks. Named after the house it was created in,  these spicy black beans with fried eggs, served over a corn tortilla, was the best way to get ready for our next adventure… shopping in the market at La Penita, which takes place every Thursday. More on that later.
