CHORIZO EGG BREAKFAST BURRITO RECIPE
Chorizo, egg, potato, and avocado breakfast burritos with ranchero cheese and salsa verde. Filling, tasty, and not too complicated. Just right for weekend mornings. Make ahead, great for freezer burritos. (Although, we prefer them freshly made. They're so good they never seem to make it to the freezer.)

Steps:
- Prep the Chorizo
- Cut the chorizo in half.
- Remove the casing with your fingers and discard.
- Break the chorizo into chunks and set aside.
- Cooking the Burrito Filling
- Chop the onions and potatoes into 1/4″ pieces. Over medium heat, cook the onions in 1 tsp. oil for 1 minute.
- Add the potatoes and cook for 10 to 12 minutes until the potatoes start to brown.
- Add the chorizo and cook for 12 minutes until the chorizo has given up most of it fat.
- Beat the eggs with 1/2 tsp. salt and pour them into the pan with the chorizo, potato, and onion.
- Let the eggs set for one minute. Then turn. Cook until the eggs have just set and break up the eggs with your spatula. Cook for couple more minutes until all of the egg has cooked through.
- Rolling the Burrito
- Cut the avocado into 1/4" pieces. Slice the spring onion into very thin rings including the 2" of the green stem.
- Heat the tortillas in a dry pan until they start to puff up and become pliable. Heat them for about 30 seconds per side. Don't let the tortilla become crispy which makes it difficult to roll.
- On the warm tortillas, place the chorizo and eggs, then add about 1 oz. of crumbled cheese, a couple of tbsps. of diced avocado and 2 tbsps. of salsa.
- Fold the bottom of the tortilla up about 1" then fold the sides of the tortilla in about 1".
- Roll the burrito tightly tucking the sides of the tortilla in as you go. It should form a tight cylinder with even ends.
- Slice the burrito in half to serve.
- Serve with extra salsa for dipping and some chopped avocado topped with crumbled cheese and sliced spring onion on the side as a garnish.

Steps:
- For the chorizo: Melt the lard in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then add the achiote, chili powder, cumin seeds, jalapeno and oregano and toast until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Cool slightly, then add to the pork in a bowl and mix well.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and brown the seasoned pork, stirring often, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the pork, reserving the pork fat in the skillet.
- Add the red onion to the skillet and adjust the heat to medium. Cook until soft and lightly caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the pork back to the pan, followed by the eggs. Scramble the eggs into the "chorizo," then add the cheese and mix thoroughly until melted. Set aside.
- For the tomatillo sauce: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Toss the tomatillos, garlic, onion, lime juice, half of the oil and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl, then transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and roast until tender and charred, about 20 minutes. Add to a blender along with the vinegar, remaining 2 tablespoons oil and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth, then set aside.
- For the potatoes: Dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil, then add the potatoes and cook until almost fork-tender, about 7 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, clip a deep-frying thermometer to a large, heavy-bottomed skillet. Heat 1 1/2 inches vegetable oil to 375 degrees F.
- Fry the potatoes until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- For the refried beans: Meanwhile, puree the black beans and lard in a food processor until smooth. Heat in a saucepan until warm.
- Heat the tortillas in a hot dry skillet or directly over a flame until pliable. Place a spoonful of the beans on each tortilla, then cover with the potatoes, then egg-chorizo mixture. Drizzle some the tomatillo sauce on top. Roll and serve.

Steps:
- Add the chorizo to a nonstick skillet and cook over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove to a plate, leaving as much oil from the chorizo as possible in the skillet.
- Add the potatoes, red peppers and onions to the same skillet and cook over medium heat, adding olive oil if the skillet ever seems dry, until the vegetables soften slightly, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the cumin, garlic powder, chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt and continue cooking, tossing only very occasionally to allow the veggies to develop some color, until the potatoes are fully cooked and the peppers and onions are soft, 10 to 15 minutes more. Add the chorizo back in, taste and adjust the seasoning as desired. Remove from the heat.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over low heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the eggs and cook, stirring continuously with a rubber or silicone spatula, until the eggs are the consistency of risotto, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat immediately and season with a few pinches of salt and a few cracks of pepper.
- Time to build. To each Tortilla Bowl, add 1/2 cup of the chorizo and potato mixture, some eggs, a pile of cheese, a drizzle of the Creamy Salsa Verde, a few pickled jalapenos and cilantro.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Brush the outsides of the tortillas with oil. Press the tortillas into jumbo muffin tins, pleating them to shape into bowls, and brush the insides with oil. (If the tortillas aren't pliable enough to mold into the cups, microwave them until they're soft.) Bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. They'll crisp up as they cool.
- Heat a grill pan over medium high. Grill the tomatillos and serranos until charred on one side, about 5 minutes. Flip and grill for another 5 minutes. Let the tomatillos and serranos cool, then remove the serrano stems and seeds. Add to a blender with the cilantro, onion, yogurt, salt and garlic. Blend until combined and transfer to a serving bowl.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking it up into small pieces, until cooked through and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon. Add the hash browns to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Beat together the eggs, a pinch of salt, a few grinds of pepper and a few dashes of hot sauce in a medium bowl until well blended. Return the chorizo to the pan and pour the eggs over the potatoes and chorizo and cook, stirring, until the eggs are fluffy and just set, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro.
- Working with one tortilla at a time, warm in a large nonstick skillet set over medium heat until pliable. Top with one-quarter of the avocado and egg mixture, 1 tablespoon of the pico de gallo and 2 tablespoons of the cheese. Fold in the two sides and roll up tightly from the bottom to the top. Repeat with remaining tortillas and burrito fillings. Serve with the remaining pico de gallo on the side.

BREAKFAST BURRITOS
A delightful breakfast, these burritos filled with soft scrambled eggs, scallion-flecked refried beans and buttery avocado slices are also great any time of the day. Cilantro adds freshness, and a few drops of your favorite hot sauce will deliver a nice zing. The nontraditional open-ended rolling technique used here will tightly encase the filling in the smaller-sized tortillas while ensuring the optimal tortilla-to-stuffing ratio. To seal completely, wrap each tortilla in a strip of foil and twist both ends. For convenience, the little wraps can be made ahead of time, stored in the refrigerator or freezer and reheated in an oven.

Steps:
- Heat broiler to high and line two sheet pans with foil.
- Place the tortillas on the sheet pans. Sprinkle half of the cheese over the tortillas. Broil, one pan at a time, until the cheese is just beginning to melt, about 20 seconds.
- In a medium nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium. Add the scallions and cumin and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the refried beans, stir to combine and cook until the beans are warmed through, about 2 minutes. Divide the beans among the tortillas, spooning in even lines down the centers.
- Wipe out the skillet and set over to medium-low heat. Pour in the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, add the whisked eggs and season lightly with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set, about 3 minutes. Divide the eggs evenly among the tortillas, in lines over the beans. Drizzle on hot sauce, if using.
- Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the eggs and top with avocado and cilantro. To roll, fold one side over the filling to enclose it, then tightly roll away from you, leaving the ends open. Serve immediately, or wrap in foil and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Reheat in a 400-degree oven or toaster oven until warm, about 8 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place sweet potatoes and green onions on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine and spread out evenly.
- Roast in the preheated oven until soft, about 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook chorizo in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, breaking apart with a wooden spoon, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain any excess fat; transfer chorizo to a bowl and set aside to cool. Wipe out the skillet and return it to the stove.
- Whisk eggs in a bowl. Heat butter in the skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in eggs and scramble until just set, 3 to 5 minutes. Scrape eggs into a bowl and let cool.
- Line up tortillas in assembly-line fashion. Divide chorizo between the 8 tortillas. Top each with a portion of sweet potato-onion mixture, scrambled eggs, 1 tablespoon salsa, and queso fresco. Fold the bottom of each tortilla up over the filling, then fold in both sides and roll up burritos.
- Flip burritos so they are seam side-down. Wrap each individually with aluminum foil and place into a resealable plastic bag.
