Mexican breakfast

Eggs with salsa

A morning meal featuring dishes typical of Mexican cuisine—eggs prepared with salsa, tortillas, beans, and chilies.

Huevos rancheros, chilaquiles, and breakfast tacos are common examples.

The term sometimes appears humorously to mean a cigarette and a cup of coffee, implying a minimal or skipped breakfast.
