I made these tacos for dinner tonight. Boy is out of town (in San Diego with his grandparents) and the remaining three of us (me, Hubby and Girl) are having a casual at-home night. These were a big hit and will definitely become a part of our weekend breakfast rotation. We had burgers (courtesy of Hubby’s employer and Omaha Steaks) for dinner last night and had some leftover french fries that were perfect to mix into these.

Tacos

6 eggs, scrambled
1 link (about 1 ounce) small, dried chorizo sausage, diced
1/2 of a 15 oz can of black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
about 1 cup cooked potatoes, chopped into bite-sized pieces
(whatever leftovers you have on hand, or you can prepare the appropriate amount of frozen hash browns)
1/4 cup finely chopped onion (white, yellow or red)
1/4 cup chopped tomato
6 tortillas, slightly warmed (the homemade ones from here are REALLY good)

Cook the onion and chorizo together in a large saute pan until the onion is soft and the chorizo is releasing its oil. Add the eggs, beans and tomatoes and cook like scrambled eggs, until cooked through and fairly dry. Fold in potatoes and cheese. Spoon into tortillas – roll up and eat!

These are great with a little bit of fresh salsa or pico de gallo.
