What’s the difference between huevos rancheros and chilaquiles?
In Huevos Rancheros, the fried eggs are served over hot, crispy tortillas smothered in warm salsa over top. In Chilaquiles, however, the chips are actually combined with the warm sauce so they soften before the fried eggs are added on top.
