Make the sauce and keep warm.
2 cup Ranchero Sauce
Tear corn tortillas into 1 inch pieces.
6 corn tortillas
In a skillet heat the oil, sauté the tortilla strips until golden brown, then drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with Tex-Mex spice blend.
3 tbsp vegetable oil, 1 tsp Tex-Mex spice blend
In a separate skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Fry 8 eggs over-easy and set aside.
1 tbsp butter, 8 fried eggs
Arrange tortillas in a circle on a plate.
Ladle about ½ cup of warm Ranchero Sauce over tortillas.
Add shredded cheese over sauce.
½ cup Monterey Jack cheese
Top with two over-easy eggs, more sauce and more cheese.

I love serving this for breakfast with refried beans, hash browns, fresh tortillas, and breakfast sausage or bacon.
