I love Huevos Rancheros, Eggs with Tomatillo Salsa and Quesadillas so I decided to take parts of each recipe and see what I could come up with. It turned out delicious and when served with refried beans, fried potatoes with onions and hot flour tortillas....it turned out to be a great breakfast. Not exactly diet conscious but...

Steps:
- 1. Place a dry griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
- 2. Place a tortilla on the skillet and sprinkle with cheese.
- 3. Add ½ cup of ham and top with more cheese.
- 4. Place another tortilla on top. Cook until light golden for about 1 - 2 minutes.
- 5. Flip over and cook until golden brown. Set aside on a plate.
- 6. Cook the eggs to your preference. Once eggs have been cooked, place over tortillas; salt and pepper to taste and top with Green Sauce (see below).
- 7. Green (Tomatillo) Sauce Directions: (I make this ahead of time and keep it in the fridge to use on this and many other dishes.)
- 8. In a medium saucepan add fresh tomatillos, chiles, and enough water to just cover. Lightly salt.
- 9. Cook for 15 minutes and drain. (For canned tomatillos, just drain and remove the thin, clear skins.)
- 10. Place tomatillos, cilantro, onion and garlic in a blender or food processor. Process to almost smooth-leave a little texture.
- 11. In a large saucepan heat the oil over medium high heat. When oil is hot add all the sauce at once, stirring constantly until darkened-about 5 minutes.
- 12. Add the broth, return to a boil and reduce heat to medium and simmer until thickened, around 10 minutes.
- 13. Remove from heat, squeeze in fresh lime juice, stir again, taste and add salt if needed. Place in an airtight container and refrigerate if not using immediately.
