    Fantastic! I made a couple of changes - Added a can of diced tomatoes to replace fresh tomatoes (included juices and reduced stock. In addition I added some Barbacoa to the layers and it was amazing!

    On a friend's recommendation I had huevos rancheros at the Coffee Pot Restaurant in Sedona, AZ while traveling through the Southwest. While it might not have been the best breakfast I've ever had it was right up there among the best. Being from Maine we don't often get an opportunity to have good Southwestern fare so I have been looking for a recipe that would, at least, get me close to that pleasurable experience in Sedona. The reviews here would indicate that this could be the recipe I've been looking for so I made it this morning. I followed the recipe to the letter except that I made the sauce yesterday and warmed it this morning. The result was a huge failure. Other than an overwhelming flavor of cilantro the meal was mostly tasteless. I didn't even finish it. My wife tried it and she had the same opinion, tasteless except for cilantro. So, I will keep looking.

    I made this for my dad's birthday breakfast since I know its one of his favorite things to order out. I'm vegetarian so I used vegetarian refried beans and vegetable stock and it tasted great. I put a dollop of sour cream on top and that was great. Love, love, LOVE this recipe.

    made it for b''fast today and it was simply delicious and so easy to make. my kids 9 & 6 loved it as well. they had seconds. I used vegetable stock and made my own refried beans ( from pinot beans. the sauce was very flavorful and delicate. kids want it have this for b'fast once every 2 weeks. serving size is HUGE. we had one egg each and it was quite filling.

    Great recipe! Easy! I used black beans instead of the refried, my husband just loved it! I also made my own sauce with dried red peppers, boiled them then blended and added a can of adobe sauce, some cumin, garlic, salt and pepper, yummy and so easy and there is left over sauce for other dishes.

    Thank you Emeril, we loved it!!!

    I have been making this recipe for years and it is often requested by family and friends alike. I add ground beef to it and leave out the cilantro since I have few people around me that like it. I would highly recommend this as a brunch for company or on a special occasion. It is really a great one!

    Wow! This was amazing in my opinion. I kept everything the same except I added diced green chilies instead of the jalapeno. Also, as other users suggested, I mixed 1T of cold water with 1T of cornstarch and slowly mixed it in after the 15 minutes of simmering because it was not thick enough for me. I used diced tomatoes in the can and drained a bit of the liquid as well. As for the taste, this was better than restaurant quality to me!! I will definitely be making this again in the future. Also, I made this for a few people so I warmed/fried all the tortillas and put them in a 9X11 casserole dish. I then spread homemade black beans on them. Next, I cooked up two eggs per tortilla and placed them on each tortilla. Finally, I spread the sauce over each one, topped with pepper jack cheese slices (1/2 a slice or so and put it under the broiler for a couple of minutes. Next time I think I'm going to try and make the sauce the day before and heat it up beforehand.

    Excellent! This was the first time my family has had huevos rancheros and it was a hit with everyone (omitted the ranchero sauce for the toddler, a bit spicy. It did take some time to make, but definately worth it. I had requests to make it a regular part of our menu before the last bites were taken. Makes a great filling dinner!
