Today has been an amazing day for this country. It somehow feels like a gust of fresh air in this very uncertain time in history. I am aware one single man cannot change the world or magically make everything better, but at least there is hope and many times hope is the only currency that can keep us going.
But now turning to what this blog is about, food, I present to you these crepas enfrijoladas (crepes with bean sauce) that were inspired by my friend Adriana of Madeline Cocina. She made egg tacos with a bean salsa, something that my mom makes and calls enfrijoladas, which literally means “in bean sauce”.
However, I made crepes stuffed with scrambled eggs instead of tacos and used a variation of this bean sauce. The crepe recipe can be found here. For the sauce I blended 1 cup of cooked pinto beans, 1 cup of diced tomatoes, 1/2 onion and 2 garlic cloves. I then seasoned and cooked the sauce over medium heat for 15 minutes and served it over the crepes with cream and queso fresco.
It was a very easy and delicious breakfast I had this morning before sitting down in front of the TV to witness history. What did you have for breakfast today?

A variety of Kasha whole grain cereal and strawberries. Very mundane…but I made up for it at lunch and dinner! Yours looks very good. It was a great day, wasn’t it?!

I’m jealous, I had a cup of coffee, and had to try to listen to a radio broadcast while at work

Looks a lot fancier than our daily oatmeal

for me breakfast was homemade muesli rolls. I enjoyed watching the ceremony, but it was late afternoon here so had to finish by listening to his speech on the car radio as the timing ran into the kids taxi service time! I watch and listen with great interest to the future politics of your country!

This looks great! I’m not that motivated in the morning but I’m thinking this would make an awesome lunch!

This sounds like a really tasty breakfast! (I had shiitake and spinach miso soup with nattou on brown rice for breakfast this morning.)

This sounds way better than what we had. It was a granola bar topped with peanut butter, cranberries and raisins and two glasses of wine. A toast to the new Prez!

Oh, how tasty! At first I thought these were taquitos and was pleasantly surprised to see they were savory crepas!
