What is it about breakfast foods for dinner that makes it taste so much better? Omelets, hashes, scrambles, pancakes, french toast or these Steak and Egg Tostadas. I love it all and breakfast for dinner is a regular occurrence in the little red kitchen. When it’s for the two of us, I will really do up a nice meal but I also love just scrambling some eggs, tossing in a little cheese and calling it dinner.
I’m not the only person who happens to love breakfast for dinner, so do many of the #SundaySupper contributors and we have an amazing lineup of recipes today. Speaking of today, if you follow me on twitter or instagram you may have noticed that I’ve been at the fabulous Food and Wine Conference all weekend! I’m so thrilled to finally meet all of my wonderful #SundaySupper friends in person.
For now though, back to the important things. Steak and Eggs. A few weeks ago I made some steak and egg sandwiches for brunch. Yum-O. I was going to recreate it today but it’s so hot out and didn’t want the heaviness of a big sandwich. Instead, I opened faced this classic combination and put a mexican spin on it! Go ahead and put any additional add-ins you love on top. Want some cheese, beans or hot sauce? Go for it? Prefer your egg scrambled, over-easy or poached? Cook them the way you like! Consider my recipe a base and customize as you go.
Ingredients
- 1lb hanger or skirt steak
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 6 4inch corn tortillas
- vegetable oil
- 6 large eggs
- 1 large avocado
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 lime
- 2 tomatoes on the vine, seeds removed, diced
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Bring your steak to room temperature, season generously with salt and pepper and 1 teaspoon cumin powder, let sit for 5 minutes and pat dry with paper towels.
- Cook the steak according to your internal temperature preference and let sit cover with foil for 5-10 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain.
- In a small frying pan, fill with enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom. Turn the heat to medium and heat the oil until it begins to shimmer. Add the first tortilla (if the oil bubbles around the tortilla it is hot enough, if it doesn't let it heat a little longer) and fry about 2 minutes per side or until the tortilla is medium golden brown and crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with kosher salt.
- In a small bowl, mash the avocado with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and juice from 1/2 lime.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream and remaining lime juice.
- Cook the eggs according to your preference.
- Place the tostada on a place and spread some of the mashed avocado on the bottom. Top with a few slices of steak, and then the fried egg. Finish with chopped tomatoes and a drizzle of lime sour cream.
I know I’m inspired from this great list of breakfast for dinner, I hope you get some great ideas too!

Normally it would be very socially unacceptable to have wine with your breakfast, but seeing as this is closer to sunset than sunrise, we say go for it!!!

I l.o.v.e. tostadas! Having them for “brinner” is an awesome idea.

Totally, girl – on nights when I’m too tired (or just straight up lazy) to cook, I scramble eggs, top it with cheese and throw it onto some toast. Delicious and easy! Now I’m going to want steak and egg tostadas instead – this looks amazing! I’ve been following you religiously on Instagram and Facebook. It’s like I’m at the conference vicariously through you! I’m so glad you’re all having an amazing time.

Oh my gosh, an egg on a tostada?? Steak tostadas is actually a meal my husband surprised me with after a VERY VERY long day. I told him it was the best meal he’d ever made me, and maybe it was….or maybe I was just super hungry 🙂 Either way, I request them often, and now, next time, I want an egg on top!!!
I really hate eggs in the morning time. But eggs for dinner are a go to for me. This breakfast for dinner sounds amazing!
I’ve never made anything like this before, I definitely need to change that – looks sooooo hearty and delicious!

looks so delicious! I agree..breakfast just tastes better at dinner 🙂
Oh yeah…this is brinner perfection. I wouldn’t usually go for steak and eggs in the morning, but after 5 PM? Bring it on!
steak and eggs… how can you go wrong?
Hope you had a marvelous time at the conference! I hope to go next year! The hubby would love your steak and eggs tostadas…just his style. They look delish!
I love the Mexican spin! This looks delicious!
As much as I love breakfast foods, somehow I can’t quite face them at breakfast. This is a yummy dinner, as far as I’m concerned! 🙂
If restaurants served steak and eggs like this, I’d be ordering it all the time!

Ooo ya, I love breakfast for dinner! Actually I really just like eggs. I could eggs all day every day. Your steak egg combo looks amazing, so good!
I have to say – this breakfast (for dinner) is definitely one that Justin would love! You can’t go wrong with the classic…and I like it in tostada form!
