My offering is for a breakfast topped sope to give a little Mexican flair to breakfast. Sopes are disks of masa about half in thick which are like shallow corn bowls. These can be fried until crisp and topped with ingredients, often which are lunch items sold as street food.
You can’t really see my sopes in the photo under the delicious toppings, but they are there and perfectly delicious. I used ones that come in a bag, as like the ones in the photo below, which were fried in the skillet. I found them in the grocery store near tortillas. It makes things so much quicker and easier. But if you like you can make your own.

Delicious and filling breakfast.
Sopas sort of remind me of arepas or pupusas. Arepas and pupusas are stuffed and sopas are topped. Either way, they’re all delicious for breakfast!
