5 Hot and Spicy Breakfasts

These Mexican-style eggs (aka huevos), scrambled in a tomato-based salsa, take hardly any time to make, yet they're so delicious. The jalapeno in the salsa gives this dish its kick -- simply add more or less, depending on your heat preference.

Who says muffins have to be sweet? This recipe, which is grain-free and vegetarian, takes things to the savory side with the warm flavors of smoked paprika and cumin and a good dose of chili flakes for heat. They make a great grab-and-go breakfast, especially alongside a tall glass of cold real milk!

This spicy sausage scramble is easy enough for a busy weekday morning, but weekend company-worthy as well. The chorizo packs such a flavor punch that these eggs don't need much beyond a little sauteed onion and some plumped raisins to make it complete.

Starting the day with light, airy homemade biscuits is simply heavenly. With this recipe, biscuits take an extra-flavorful turn, loaded with cheddar cheese and studded with jalapenos. Good thing it's quick and easy to make more, because these biscuits won't last long.

If you like enchiladas for dinner, then you'll probably love chilaquiles for breakfast--they're basically the same ingredients! True Mexican comfort food, chilaquiles (pronounced chee-la-KEE-less) are strips of fried tortillas simmered in salsa, often served with eggs and a side of beans. We offer two homemade salsa recipes -- make them as hot or as mild as you like.
