These egg chorizo breakfast tacos are so delicious and versatile, too. I wanted to give you an idea of how to use that delicious chorizo I made last time. If you haven’t seen it, check out my post on how to make “Mexican Style Chorizo”.
If you want to take a short cut on these tacos, you can just buy the chorizo. I have seen it at “international” markets and grocery stores. Also, I don’t know if your Walmart would carry it, but I have even seen chorizo at my local Walmart. Trader Joe’s has a soy version that I have purchased before. But, my favorite is still my homemade version đ
If you are using store-bought Mexican chorizo, you will need to peel the chorizo out of the white film that covers it and then fry it up in a pan with oil until it is fully cooked and crispy.
Like all recipes, you can take this one and make it your own. In this case I made it simple, just chorizo and eggs, but sometimes I like to add tomatoes and onions and cook them down at the same time as the chorizo.
Don’t forget to have your favorite salsa ready when you make these tacos, and chop some cilantro and onion to sprinkle on top, too!
HOW MUCH DID I SPEND FOR THIS RECIPE:
I spent around $4.73 for the entire recipe that fed 2 people which ends up being $2.36 per serving. Prices are going to vary by brands, stores, states, or other factors. This is just an estimate to give you a ballpark idea of price per meal.
