Cooking Instructions
Cook the Chorizo
In a large skillet, over medium heat, cook the chorizo until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Break it up with a spoon as it cooks.
Scramble the Eggs
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined. Pour the eggs into the skillet and gently stir with a spatula, cooking until the eggs are scrambled and just set, about 4-5 minutes.
Add Cheese
Sprinkle the shredded Cheddar Jack cheese on top of the scrambled eggs and let it melt for a minute before removing from heat.
Warm Tortillas
In a separate pan or microwave, warm the flour tortillas until soft and pliable.
Serve
Serve the Southwest Scrambler hot, with sides of guacamole and salsa, and warm flour tortillas.
