CAMPFIRE CHORIZO TACOS

INGREDIENTS

Cast Iron Skillet (x2)
Cheese Grater
Fresh Eggs
Chorizo from Simas Farms
Roasted Pepper Cheese from Petaluma Creamery
Green Chile Tortillas
Honey Maple Bacon

We purchased all of our local ingredients from Midtown Farmers Market in Sacramento, CA.

Pro Tip: Always bring cash to a Farmer’s Market. Funny enough, our local egg vendor was cash only. When we mentioned we only had a card he suggested we trade his dozen eggs for something tasty from another local vendor! We were thrilled. However, this luck doesn’t happen often. Always go prepared.

 

 

Valentine’s Day Breakfast Recipe

Step 1: Crack eggs into a bowl.
Step 2: Beat eggs until blended.
Step 3: Grate cheese into bowl of eggs.
Step 4: Whisk together and place to the side.

 

 

Step 4: Chop up chorizo and place in skillet.
Step 5: Add eggs and cheese gently into skillet.
Step 6: Place over fire.
Step 7: As your tortilla filling begins to set, gently pull the mixture across the pan with an inverted turner, forming medium soft curds of eggs, chorizo and cheese.

 

 

Step 8: Bring on the bacon! Place bacon strips in second cast iron, set over fire and cook to your liking. MMM that is a great looking  Valentines Day Breakfast.

Romantic Hot Spring trips

 

Final step: Place both skillets onto table and let your guests assemble their own tacos as they please.

Pro tip: If you can score some Chile Verde Tortillas from your local Farmer’s Market we highly recommend it!

 

 

We hope you enjoy the spicy yet heavenly flavor of this easy morning recipe cooked over an open fire as much as we did. Happy Valentines Day from La Mesa RV!
