One of my favorite meals is my Mexican American Breakfast. I wake up early and prepare this tastyĀ breakfast for my husband and I on a weekday or during the weekend. We both love BigelowĀ #AmericasTea so when #CollectiveBias invited me to participate in this shop I was thrilled with the opportunity.

That is why today I want to share with you myĀ Mexican American Breakfast that consist of “molletes”and tea. AnĀ easy recipe thatĀ brings me so many great memories when I was a teenager and a college student. Molletes are a treat that we Mexicans grow up with, it is like a bruschetta but with refried beans and topped with cheese and Mexican salsa over a toasty “bolillo” bread. These flavors go great with theĀ American Breakfast Bigelow Tea that I found at Walmart.

- 2 bolillos or small baguettes
- 1 teaspoon of butter or margarine
- 1/2 cup of refried beans
- 1/2 cups of shredded cheese (preferably Mexican style mix)

For the Mexican salsa
- 1/2 purple onion chopped
- 1 medium size tomato chopped
- 1 serrano pepper chopped
- 1 lemon (juiced)

Preparation time: 20 minutes. Serves two portions. Cost per serving less than $2.00 dollars depending on the cost of the ingredients at your local supermarket. You will need a chopping block, an oven, knife, spoons and measuring cups.
