Ingredients
Scale

-
- 8 large eggs
-
- 200g (7 oz) homemade or store-bought chorizo sausage, crumbled
-
- 1 bell pepper, diced
-
- 1 small onion, diced
-
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
-
- 1 avocado, sliced
-
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (such as cheddar or Monterey Jack)
-
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
-
- Salt and pepper to taste

- Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
-
- Prep Ingredients: Begin by preparing all your ingredients. Dice the onion, bell pepper, and cherry tomatoes. Slice the avocado and chop the fresh cilantro. Crumble the chorizo sausage if it's not already done.
-
- Cook Chorizo: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the crumbled chorizo sausage. Cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until it's browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, remove the chorizo from the skillet and set it aside.
-
- Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add a little olive oil if needed, then add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté until they are softened and slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.
-
- Scramble Eggs: Push the sautéed vegetables to one side of the skillet and crack the eggs into the empty side. Scramble the eggs until they are fully cooked, mixing them with the vegetables as they cook. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
- Warm Tortillas: While the eggs are cooking, warm the tortillas. You can do this by heating them in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side or by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving them for 20-30 seconds.
-
- Assemble Tacos: Once everything is cooked, it's time to assemble the tacos. Place a spoonful of scrambled eggs onto each tortilla, followed by a spoonful of cooked chorizo. Top with cherry tomatoes, avocado slices, shredded cheese, and chopped cilantro.
-
- Serve: Serve the Homemade Chorizo Breakfast Tacos immediately while they're warm. You can also offer additional toppings such as salsa, hot sauce, or Greek yogurt if desired.
-
- Enjoy: Enjoy your delicious and nutritious Homemade Chorizo Breakfast Tacos! They're perfect for a satisfying breakfast or brunch that's packed with flavor and protein.
