Instructions
Ranchero Sauce:
Heat ¼ cup oil in large sauté pan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and jalapenos and cook for 3 minutes or until vegetables have softened. Add tomatoes and remaining spices and cook for another 5 minutes, or until tomatoes have softened and begun to thicken. Pulse in food processor a few times, until a chunky sauce forms. Keep warm.
Roasted Portabella Mushrooms:
Brush each mushroom cap generously with olive oil (both sides) and season with salt and pepper. Roast on a baking sheet, stem side down, at 400 ° F for about 15 minutes, or until softened. Keep warm.
Assembly:
Whisk 2 eggs (½ cup liquid whole eggs) with pinch of cumin, salt and pepper and pour into a spray-coated 8-inch non-stick sauté pan. Cook eggs until firm throughout, with no visible liquid egg remaining. Spoon scrambled eggs into one mushroom cap and place in a shallow bowl.
