Easy Mexican Recipe

Ever since my stove was installed a few weeks ago and after finding out we're expecting a baby, all I've been talking about on social media has been food.. and do you blame me? I was stove-less and without a kitchen for over 4 months and eating out didn't turn out to be as fun as I initially thought. I literally became sick from all the Italian, Bengali and American food I ate.

Now that my stove is installed and my kitchen is 90% done I simply want to live in it. I enjoy cooking so much it's a bit concerning. One cuisine I will never get sick of eating and cooking is Mexican cuisine. I LOVE all the fresh ingredients each recipe uses as well as the spices and not to mention how Mexican people wear their cuisine on their sleeves. It's addicting. I believe I was Mexican in another life and if you don't like Mexican food we could never be friends.

I was recently contacted by Molli Sauce and they asked if I was interested in trying a few of their authentic Mexican sauces. I couldn't resist. I said yes.

Along with three of their sauces they also included a few suggested recipes and Mexico: The Cookbook. Stay till the end of the post for a link that will take you straight to a sweet giveaway I'm currently having on my Instagram.

Upon receiving the products I knew I wanted to share a very simple recipe that everyone could make and that was in the cookbook. Eggs! Anyone can make that, right? Today I am making delicious Divorced Eggs which will make anyones morning glorious.

I went the extra mile to have a little freshness on my plate. I made a very simple tomato, onion and  cilantro salsa to go along with the dish. So delicious!
