While we were in Mexico, we enjoyed Huevos Rancheros for breakfast every single morning! So I recreated our memorable Mexican breakfast for you that includes a shortcut "refried" beans.

Instructions
In a small pot, combine the salsa ingredients, bring to a boil, and simmer over medium-low heat for 10 - 15 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients. Add more water, if necessary, to keep the pot from drying out.
Combine the refried beans ingredients in a skillet over medium heat. Let the mixture boil lightly for 3 - 4 minutes, then mash into a paste with a potato masher. Add a few more splashes of water if necessary to keep the beans from drying out.
Heat another skillet (or use the one you made the beans in, if you transfer those to a serving dish) over medium-low heat and melt the butter. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook on both sides until done to your liking. I like mine just a touch runny in the middle. Season with salt and pepper.
Arrange the corn tortillas on two plates and top each one with two eggs. Divide the beans and spread on each plate next to the tortilla. Sprinkle the salsa, cheese, and cilantro over top and serve warm.
