Chorizo and Potatoes

A savory breakfast dish that is simple and delicious for a weekend breakfast. Pork chorizo with potatoes, triple cheddar cheese, topped with eggs.

When we were kids our dad would always make this for us every other Sunday. So, we thought we put our own spin on it.

This recipe takes about 30 minutes to whip up and does not take very many ingredients.

Ingredients you will need:

• Chorizo. We used pork chorizo.
• Potatoes. We used russet potatoes. We found these work best for this recipe.
• Salt.
• Pepper. We used black pepper
• Cheese. We used triple cheddar cheese for this recipe, but regular cheddar works too. You can also try munster cheese.
• Tortillas. We have tried both flour and corn tortilla.

How to make the Potatoes

Step 1: Place the diced potatoes in a large pot cover with water leaving an inch from the top.

Step 2: Turn the heat on high and boil for 20- 25 minutes until the potatoes are tender.

Step 3: Drain and set aside.

Making the Chorizo

Step 1: In a medium skillet add the chorizo.

Step 2: Cook over medium-low heat for 4-5 minutes. Break the chorizo up with a wooden spoon.

Step 3: Add the potatoes and mix them with the chorizo. Add salt and pepper.

Step 4: Allow it to cook for 4 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Step 5: Serve and top with cheese and your favorite style of eggs. For us, that is scrambled eggs.

This dish goes well with both corn and flour tortilla, but it also goes well with toast too.
