Pico de Gallo Preparation: In a bowl, mix the diced cherry tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Beans Preparation: Warm the refried black beans in a pan over medium heat. Stir in cumin and minced garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then set aside.
Eggs: Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes, and whisk well. Heat a non-stick pan with a drizzle of olive oil over low heat. Add the eggs and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until they’re softly set.
