  • 2
    0.25 cooked black beans, optional cup

Seasoning

  • 1

  • 3
    1 olive oil teaspoon
  • 4

Directions

1

Prepare Ingredients

Dice the onion and bell pepper. Mince the garlic. For fresh chorizo, remove the casing and crumble the meat. For cured chorizo, slice into small pieces.

2

Cook Chorizo and Vegetables

Place a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add olive oil. Once heated, add the chorizo, diced onion, and bell pepper to the pan. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chorizo is browned and the vegetables are softened. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

3

Add Garlic

Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for an additional minute until fragrant. This will enhance the flavor profile. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

Scramble Eggs

In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, salt, and pepper (and chili powder if desired) until well combined. Pour the egg mixture over the chorizo and vegetable mixture in the pan. Scramble eggs for 2-3 minutes, or until cooked through. Use a spatula to gently move the cooked egg from the edge towards the center, allowing any liquid egg to cook.

5

Add Cheese and Beans

Remove the pan from heat. Add cheese to the top and let it melt by the residual heat, about 1 minute. If using black beans, add them to the skillet during this step to warm them through.

6

Serve

Carefully transfer the mixture to a bowl. Top with sliced avocado. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Recipe Tips

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
  • If you don't have fresh chorizo, you can use cured chorizo or even a spicy Italian sausage as a substitute.
  • To make it a complete meal, serve with a side of whole wheat toast or a small salad.
  • Make sure to adjust the amount of salt based on the saltiness of your chorizo and cheese.
  • For additional flavor, roast the vegetables before cooking with the chorizo. Preheat oven to 400F (200C), toss veggies with olive oil, salt and pepper and roast for 20 minutes before adding to the recipe.
