Why Are Huevos Called Divorciados?
Huevos Divorciados, or “divorced eggs” in English, are called this because the dish features two eggs “divorced” or separated by a line of salsa or beans. The two halves of the dish represent a couple who are separated or divorced. It is a popular Mexican breakfast dish that is often served with refried beans, tortillas, and avocado. The name adds a playful element to the dish and makes it more interesting to order at restaurants.
