Preheat oven to 425°.
Arrange tortillas on a baking sheet and warm in the oven, about 5 minutes. (Cover with foil for softer tortillas.)
In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat until hot. Add onion and sauté until softened, about 2 minutes. Add bell pepper and cumin and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes, or until bell pepper is softened. Add the beans and heat until beans are heated through. Transfer bean mixture to a bowl. Set aside.
Lightly coat skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Break each egg into skillet and fry until just set, about 1 minute.
Remove the tortillas from the oven. Keep tortillas on baking sheet. Spoon some bean mixture onto each tortilla, then top each with 1 egg and 1 tablespoon cheese. Return to oven and bake until the cheese has melted, about 6 minutes.
Top each egg with 1 tablespoon salsa, minced jalapeño and cilantro. Serve immediately.
