Description

These Mexican breakfast tacos are a quick, easy, and tasty morning meal of warm tortillas filled with chorizo scrambled eggs, salsa, and hot sauce.

Ingredients

6 ounces chorizo sausage
cooking spray
6 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
8 (6 inch) corn tortillas
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup salsa
1 dash hot pepper sauce (e.g. Tabasco™), or to taste

Directions

1 Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove sausage to a plate. Drain and discard grease; wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel.
2 Place the same skillet over medium heat and grease with cooking spray. Whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl; pour into the prepared skillet. Cook and gently stir until scrambled and almost dry. Add sausage; continue to cook and stir until firm.
3 Meanwhile, warm a second skillet over high heat. Cook tortillas until hot and crispy on the edges, but still pliable, about 45 seconds per side.
4 Sprinkle Monterey Jack cheese evenly onto hot tortillas. Top each with scrambled eggs, salsa, and hot pepper sauce.
