Breakfast Burrito with Chorizo

I make a lot of burritos at my house. My kids love them and they’re the perfect quick meal during soccer season—ok, well any season! My breakfast burrito may not be super quick but it’s well worth the 30 minutes or so it takes to make them. They are so flavorful with scrambled eggs cooked with onion, garlic, and cumin, then topped with chorizo, fresh avocado, cilantro, sour cream and ranch dressing, salsa and tomatillo sriracha. One bite and you will be hooked. Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS

4 Flour Tortillas, Burrito Size

½ tsp Cumin
½ tsp Salt
¼ tsp Pepper
1 tbsp Olive Oil
¼ cup Red Onion, minced
1 Garlic Clove, minced
2 tbsp Cilanatro, minced
¼ cup Sour Cream
¼ cup Ranch Dressing
1 cup Mexican Cheese Mix, shredded
1 Lime
1 Avocado, chopped
1 Tomato, chopped
Garnishes: Salsa, Tomatillo sriracha, Cilantro

DIRECTIONS

1

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Save time and cook chorizo (if raw) and egg mixture at the same time. If you have cooked chorizo, dice and add to egg mixture.

2

Cook chorizo in a small saucepan over medium heat until light and crispy. Set aside and divide into 4 portions in the pan. Beat eggs with salt, pepper, and cumin. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add onion and garlic and cook for 2 min. Add eggs and cilantro and scramble until soft. Set aside and divide into 4 portions in the pan. Also divide the avocado, cilantro, tomatoes, and cheese.

3

Mix the sour cream and ranch together, set aside. Spoon 1 portion of the egg mixture and chorizo into the center of a tortilla. Top with avocado, cheese, tomatoes, a light squeeze of lime, a spoonful of the sour cream dressing, and the salsa/sriracha if desired. Roll up the burrito, and place seam side down on a baking sheet. Make the remaining 3 burritos. Place in the oven for 10 min., then serve warm.
