It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

30-60 minutes
ingredients
SAUCE
2 dried chipotle peppers
1 whole jalapeno pepper, stem removed
1 pound fresh tomatillos, husks removed
12 ounces tomatoes, stems removed
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
salt
freshly ground black pepper
ASSEMBLY
8 corn tortillas (6-inch size)
1/2 pound thinly sliced or shredded Monterey Jack cheese
2 tablespoons butter
8 large eggs
6 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1/2 cup finely diced white onion
3 tablespoons Cotija or Parmesan cheese, grated
directions
Place chipotle and jalapeno peppers in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then turn off heat. Allow to sit until chipotle peppers have softened, about 30 minutes. Drain thoroughly and discard liquid.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Place tomatillos and tomatoes in a shallow baking pan and roast for 15 minutes. Remove from heat but do not turn off oven.
Transfer to a blender and add chipotle peppers, jalapeno pepper, oil, oregano and marjoram. Blend until smooth and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Transfer mixture to a small saucepan, bring to a boil, and remove from heat.
Place tortillas on a large baking sheet and spread evenly with the cheese. Bake until the cheese has melted, about 3 minutes.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a large nonstick pan over medium-low heat and break eggs into pan one at a time. Cook them to taste, over easy or sunny side-up.
Place an egg on each tortilla, ladle a generous spoonful of sauce over each, and top each with a sprinkling of cilantro, diced onions and cheese. If desired, serve with refried beans.
