This Mexican breakfast bowl recipe is a hearty and flavorful dish that will give you plenty of fuel to start your day! It's chock full of bold flavors like tomatillo sauce or green salsa, pickled red onions, tangy Cotija cheese and cilantro for a delicious South-of-the-border flavor combination.
This ingredient is optional but adds nice flavor. Whisk vinegar, sugar, salt and water in a small bowl until sugar and salt dissolve. Place onion in a jar and top with the vinegar mixture. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour. Chill, and drain onions before using.
