How to Make Chorizo And Egg Breakfast Burritos

  1. Dice the potato into ½-inch pieces. Boil in a small pan until tender (about 8-10 minutes, depending on size). Drain and set aside.
  2. While potatoes boil, remove casings from chorizo and cook over medium heat in a non-stick skillet until browned. Drain, reserving about 1 tablespoon of chorizo fat in the skillet.
  3. Add the cooked chorizo and potatoes to the skillet. Cook and stir for about 1 minute.
  4. Pour in the beaten eggs and stir to combine. Cook until eggs are almost set.
  5. Stir in the shredded cheese until melted and eggs are fully cooked.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Warm tortillas in the microwave for 30 seconds, or until soft and pliable.
  8. Divide the egg and chorizo mixture evenly between the two tortillas.
  9. Add salsa to taste.
  10. Roll up the burritos and enjoy immediately!
