Ingredients

1.0
1 cup Salsa, mild 2.0
2 tbsp cold water 0.5
0 1/2 tsp oregano leaves 2.0
2 each eggs 1.0
1 pinch salt 1.0
1 pinch black pepper 1.0
1 cup low sodium canned black beans 0.5
0 1/2 tbsp white wine vinegar 3.0
3 pinch hot pepper sauce 2.0
2 each low carb tortilla (10-inch) 2.0
2 tbsp low fat cheddar cheese, shredded 1.0
1 tsp fresh cilantro

Directions

Preheat the broiler.
Put the salsa, water, and oregano in a skillet and place over medium low heat until the combination starts to bubble. Place the eggs in one at a time without breaking the yolks. Season with salt and pepper.
Poach the eggs for about 3 to 5 minutes without boiling to make sure the egg whites do not break.
Heat the beans, vinegar, and hot pepper sauce in a saucepan.
Heat the tortillas for 30 seconds each on a stovetop burner over medium heat. Set them on a plate and pour the bean combination evenly over all tortillas.
Place a poached egg and some salsa on each tortilla and sprinkle the cheese on top. Broil for about 1 minute or until the cheese melts. Garnish with the cilantro and serve.
