Ingredients
Method
Cooking the Chorizo
- Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo sausage to the skillet and cook until it’s fully browned and cooked through, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon. This should take about 5–7 minutes.
Preparing the Veggies
- Once the chorizo is cooked, add the diced bell peppers and onions to the skillet. Continue to sauté for another 3–4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Scrambling the Eggs
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined. Pour this mixture into the skillet with the chorizo and vegetables. Gently stir and cook until the eggs are fully scrambled and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
Assembling the Burritos
- Lay a tortilla flat on a plate, then place some of the chorizo and egg filling in the center. Top with shredded cheese and any extra toppings you desire.
Wrapping It Up
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up from the bottom to the top, making sure to secure the filling inside.
Serving
- Serve your burritos as-is or place them seam-side down on a skillet for a minute to make them crispy. Serve hot with salsa on the side for extra flavor!
Notes
For a lighter version, swap chorizo with turkey or chicken sausage. Measure ingredients ahead for quicker cooking. Avoid overcooking eggs to keep them soft and fluffy. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for 2 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes or microwave for 1-2 minutes.
