Make
-
Heat a nonstick pan or skillet over medium heat. Add first portion of oil and then chorizo and white parts of green onions. Saute, breaking chorizo apart, until cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes.
-
Transfer chorizo to a paper towel-lined plate. Drain off oil from the pan and wipe it clean with a paper towel.
-
Return pan to medium heat and add second portion of oil. Pour eggs over heated oil. Let sit until the bottom parts start to set. Lightly scramble and cook until eggs are cooked to the consistency you’d like. Fold in green parts of green onions.
-
While eggs are cooking, reheat leftover potatoes in the microwave.
-
Warm tortillas according to package directions.
-
Set tortillas out on a clean surface. Fill each tortilla with eggs, crumbled cheese, potatoes, and chorizo. Top burrito filling with some salsa if you’d like (you can also just reserve it for dipping).
-
Fold the sides of the burritos and then roll to enclose the filling.
-
Serve burrito with salsa and sour cream for dipping. Enjoy fruit salad on the side.
