Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high. Fry the 2 corn tortillas one at a time until crisp and golden, about 1-2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

  2. Step 2

    In the same skillet, add remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Crack the 2 eggs and fry until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Slice the 1 avocado and arrange on the crispy tortillas. Top with the fried eggs, 1 cup arugula, and 0.25 cup olives. Drizzle with extra oil or a squeeze of lime if you like.

  4. Step 4

    Serve immediately while the tostadas are crisp.
