    Cook Chorizo

    In a medium skillet over medium heat, crumble the chorizo and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat and set aside.

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add chopped onion and bell peppers. Sauté until softened, about 4-5 minutes.

    Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top of the egg mixture and cover the skillet. Allow the cheese to melt, about 2 minutes.
