"From a wonderful website, www.whfoods.com Tips: You may want to lay the spoon with the egg on a towel briefly after removing egg from water. This allows the towel to absorb some of the poaching water, and it won't end up in your beans."

ingredients

4 free range eggs
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar or 1 teaspoon any other light vinegar
4 cups water
4 tablespoons chicken broth or 4 tablespoons vegetable broth
2 (16 ounce) cans black beans, drained
1 medium onion, minced

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
¹⁄₈ teaspoon salt
¹⁄₈ teaspoon pepper
1 cup salsa (prepared)
2 cups shredded romaine lettuce
1 large avocado, cubed

directions

Bring water and vinegar to a light boil in a shallow pan. Make sure there is enough water to cover eggs.
In a separate stainless steel skillet heat 1 tbs broth. Sauté onion in broth over medium heat for about 5 minutes stirring frequently, until translucent. Add garlic, beans, red chili powder, cumin, and rest of broth while egg water is coming to a boil. Cook beans for about 10 minutes on medium low heat, stirring occasionally. Add cilantro, salt and pepper.
To poach eggs, crack into water and cook about 5 minutes, just until the white is set and the yolk have filmed over. Remove with a slotted spoon, and place eggs over beans. Serve with salsa, shredded romaine lettuce and avocado.

This was very good. Since the eggs weren't fried, I felt I could fry a couple of tortillas lightly to serve it on. I used pinto beans, but followed the recipe otherwise. Very tasty. Thanks for sharing.

I live in a booming town on the West Coast, close to a mountain range and the beach. My favorite cookbook is my mother's old Betty Crocker cookbook, because I have such fond memories of baking with her when I was younger. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"><img src=http://i335.photobucket.com/albums/m445/mliss29/vegnswap2/group09okra.jpg><img src=http://i335.photobucket.com/albums/m445/mliss29/vegnswap3/group06grape.jpg> <b>Chef of the Day: Sept 5th, 2008</b>
