Ingredients

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup cooked and crumbled chorizo
  • 1 medium bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 1 large avocado, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon salsa
  • for garnish fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the red onion and bell pepper, sautéing until they're softened (about 3-4 minutes).
  2. Add the cooked chorizo to the skillet, mixing it in with the veggies, and heat through for 2 more minutes.
  3. Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them together with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet, stirring continuously until they are just set.
  4. Stir in the baby spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in the tablespoon of salsa.
  5. To assemble the burritos, lay a flour tortilla on a flat surface. Spoon the egg and chorizo mixture into the center, followed by a generous sprinkling of shredded cheddar cheese and a few slices of avocado.
  6. Fold the sides of the tortilla in, followed by rolling it from the bottom up to encase the filling fully. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  7. For an extra touch, you can lightly grill the burritos seam-side down in a skillet over low-medium heat for 2-3 minutes to crisp them up.
  8. Slice the burritos in half and serve immediately, garnished with fresh cilantro and additional salsa on the side.
