CHORIZO AND EGG BREAKFAST BURRITOS - OAMC



Chorizo and Egg Breakfast Burritos - OAMC image

Chorizo is a Mexican sausage. It's high in fat but it's very flavorful so you don't need much of it. If you can't find it, substitute bulk pork sausage and add 1 t. taco seasoning. It won't be as good, but you'll still have a filling breakfast. If your family is larger, you may want to double this recipe but you'll need a very large skillet. Bonus - these burritos were a huge hit at an early morning tailgate party - we kept them warm in a pan sitting over some simmering water.

This was taught to me by a Mexican-American friend of mine in Texas. She always made homemade tortillas. I'm not that ambitious but the results are still good.

Time 12m

Yield 2 burritos, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 lb mexican chorizo sausage
1 large potato, diced
3 eggs, slightly beaten
2 large flour tortillas
1/2 cup monterey jack cheese

Steps:

  • In small pan boil potatoes until soft. Time depends on the size of the dice. Drain and set aside.
