Ingredients

  • 1 large tomato, quartered

  • 1 (12 ounce) package queso fresco, cut into chunks
  • 12 thick corn tortillas
  • 2 eggs, separated
  • 5 tablespoons canola oil

Directions

Step 1
Combine tomato and red onion in a food processor; blend, slowly adding queso fresco, until a paste forms.

Step 2
Fold corn tortillas in half and fill them with the tomato and red onion paste.

Step 3
Beat egg whites in a bowl with an electric mixer until foamy. Add egg yolks one by one, mixing thoroughly until blended into the egg whites.
