Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb fresh chorizo
- 4 large eggs
- 4 medium flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese
- ½ cup sautéed bell peppers and onions
Instructions
- Cook the chorizo in a skillet over medium heat until browned, about 5 minutes.
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs with salt and pepper. Push chorizo to one side of the skillet and pour eggs on the other side.
- Add sautéed peppers and onions with the eggs. Stir gently until eggs are set but creamy, around 3 minutes.
- Warm tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave. Spoon the chorizo-egg mixture onto each tortilla, sprinkle with cheese, and fold burrito-style.
- For added crispiness, toast burritos seam-side down in the skillet for about 2 minutes per side until golden brown.
