Tips

I like to add a little but of cumin and chili powder to the eggs before I cook them along with the seasoned salt/pepper. It gives the eggs a nice kick without changing the nutritional info.


Directions

Cook chorizo in a nonstick skillet and drain.

Scramble whole eggs and egg whites in a bowl with salt and pepper. Add the eggs to the same pan chorizo was cooked in and cook until done.

While eggs cook, chop onion and jalapeno. (I like mine finely diced.) Add chopped veggies to bowl along with chorizo. Once eggs are finished cooking, add them to the same bowl. Mix ingredients until well combined.

Shred 6 oz. of cheese, set aside.

Divide egg/chorizo mixture amongst 10 tortillas. Top egg/chorizo mixture with cheese. Roll tortillas burrito style. Wrap each burrito in a paper towel and then in foil. Place wrapped burritos in a gallon Ziploc bag and freeze.

When you are ready for a burrito, remove the foil and place the paper towel wrapped tortilla on a plate. Heat in microwave on 80 power for 1 min. Enjoy!
