Breakfast tacos

Refuel from a busy morning

It has been a crazy busy morning. Up before dawn, house cleaned and a run smashed out all before getting ready for work. My morning workout left me feeling completely empty and in need of a bit more for breakfast than a protein shake. I quickly rummaged in the fridge and landed some chorizo sausage, eggs and spring onions – perfect for some quick and easy breakfast tacos. It is Tuesday, after all. If you want an easy and filling breakfast, give them a go.

Breakfast tacos 

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 spring onion, finely sliced
  • Chorizo sausage, cubed
  • 2 corn tortillas
  • 1 tbsp. Olive oil

Instructions

Take a mixing bowl and crack in the eggs.

Beat the eggs with a fork until they are well combined.

Take a small frying pan or sauté pan and warm it over medium heat.

Once the pan is warmed, add a tortilla and warm it up, turning it over after a minute or two. 

The tortilla needs to be warmed, not crisp.

Repeat with the other tortilla.

Add the oil to the pan, and then add the chorizo to the oil.

When the chorizo starts to colour on one side, move it around to ensure it is cooked on all sides. 

Add the spring onions to the pan with the chorizo. 

Cook the spring onion for a minute before moving half the chorizo and spring onion to a bowl and set it to one side.

Add half the eggs to the pan with the chorizo, ensuring the sausage is evenly distributed. 

Cook the eggs for a minute or two on one side. 

Flip the eggs over to cook the other side for a minute.

Put the cooked eggs on one of the warmed tortillas.

Repeat with the remaining egg and chorizo.

Serve while hot with your topping of choice.

Enjoy!
