Hola amigos!

Just kidding! I did not start speaking Spanish all of a sudden haha. So eggs and chorizo, how popular is this one where you live? I had no idea chorizo excited until I came to the US actually, and I would probably never find out about it if it wasn't for my husband matt-a@matt-a. Still to this day though, I don't know if I like chorizo or not, I mean, it's good, but I never have it on my grocery list and usually grab some if I see it in the store.

Anyway. This is most likely very far from being an authentic recipe, and to tell you the truth I don't who came up with the basic recipe first, the Spanish or the Mexican, let me know in the comments.

Just like when I cook anything else I made this my way and I am sure if you were to cook it, you would leave something out and bring something different in.

Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs;
  • 1 clove of garlic (sliced);
  • 1/2 lb extra lean beef chorizo;
    Sides and garnishes:
  • 1 fresh jalapeno pepper;
  • a handful of grape tomatoes;
  • 2 tb. spoons grated muenster cheese;
  • a few cilantro sprigs;
  • tortilla chips or corn tortillas;
  • 1 avocado;
  • 1 lime.

Directions:

Preheat your skillet, add a bit of cooking oil, garlic and chorizo and cook the meat until it's done. Then stir in the eggs, making a scramble. You can beat in all 4 of them or crack one in the center of the dish like I did to achieve that pretty look haha.

Alright, that's it. Eggs and chorizo are all done and ready to be served with your favorite sides and garnishes.

Sour cream and chipotle Cholula would make a great garnish to this dish. I had no hot sauce around at the time so I had to skip it in the list of ingredients, but it is very worth mentioning it! Bon appetite!
