Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

  2. Mix 1 jar salsa and the chicken broth in a saucepan, bringing it to a boil over medium-high heat. Let it cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, stirring continuously. Remove the saucepan from heat and add the cheese, stirring until melted (it won't combine into a smooth sauce; that's fine).

  3. Place the tortilla chips in an oven-safe dish and pour the sauce on top. Sprinkle on a handful of cheese, then place in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes.

  4. Once you're halfway through cooking, heat the oil in a saute pan and cook the eggs, two at a time, until the whites have set but the yolk is still runny. Slide the eggs onto the cooked tortilla mixture. Crack open the second salsa jar and spoon on a little extra salsa and torn cilantro. Spoon on sour cream, if desired.

Why this Baked Breakfast Nachos (Chilaquiles) works for PCOS

Eating a substantial breakfast like this Baked Breakfast Nachos (Chilaquiles) is one of the highest-leverage moves you can make for PCOS. In the Jakubowicz et al. 2013 trial published in Clinical Science, women with PCOS who front-loaded calories to breakfast reduced fasting insulin by 56% and increased ovulation rates 50%, with no change in total calories. Front-loading works because insulin sensitivity is highest in the morning and lowest at night.
