Huevos Whateveros

In a letter to Mike Marino & Dr. Sandoz D. Cerveza from author Ken Kesey...

Mike:
Whateveros are very popular the second or third day after the main dish that has inspired them has faded away from memory…easiest of course, are the leftovers from a bulky Mexican meal.

I like to chop them all in a big skillet along with some fresh tomato and peppers, and even tortilla chunks if there are some leftover. Cook until the tortillas are swollen and soaked. Crack, carefully, about a half dozen eggs and top with chilie sauce and chunks of cheese.

Stick in the oven and cook until visions can be seen, then turn off the bottom and turn on the broiler until the eggs and cheese are turned light brown. Serve for lunch or supper or even breakfast. The same thing can be done with leftover Chinese, using noodles instead of tortillas, or leftover corned beef, or thai food. Anything that was good once and still has body, will be good again. Best served with a cup of good Mexican coffee.

…Kesey..
