As my photo will tell you, this wasn't the most photogenic food I've ever made, but it definitely was tasty! I used up the last of my Easter ham in this (finally, yay!). I mashed my own beans instead of using storebought refrieds, and I used fried eggs. I used Herdez salsa verde on the eggs, and topped the whole thing off with some Bufalo salsa rojo and some diced fresh serrano pepper. It looked like quite the mish-mash by the time I was done assembling it, but it was delicious nonetheless (hey, flavor doesn't have to be pretty, right?). Thanks for posting! Made for PAC Spring 2013
