Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup finely diced mango (about 3 ounces)
1/2 cup finely diced pineapple (about 3 ounces)
1/4 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
1/4 cup finely diced red onion (about 1 ounce)
1/2 jalapeño, seeded (optional) and finely diced (about 2 tablespoons)
Juice of 1 lime (about 2 tablespoons)
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 chicken chorizo sausages, diced (about 4 ounces)
1 cup baby kale (about 1 ounce)
1 cup baby spinach (about 1 ounce)
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup shredded mozzarella (about 4 ounces)
2 large (burrito-size) spinach tortillas or wraps

Steps:

  • Combine the mango, pineapple, cilantro, onions, jalapeños, lime juice and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring frequently, until browned and warmed through, about 5 minutes. Add the kale, spinach and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the greens wilt completely, and any excess moisture evaporates, about 5 minutes. Stir in the eggs and let sit until the bottom starts to set, about 1 minute. Drag the eggs from side to side with a spatula, letting them set on the bottom each time so that big curds form, 2 to 3 minutes. Once the eggs are no longer runny, turn off the heat.
  • Spread 1/2 cup mozzarella in the center of each tortilla. Microwave one at a time until the tortilla is warm and the cheese melts, 30 seconds. Divide the egg mixture between the tortillas and top each with 2 tablespoons of the fruit salsa. Fold in the sides of each tortilla and then roll them up to form compact burritos. Serve with the remaining fruit salsa on the side.

Tips:

  • For a quicker meal, use pre-cooked chorizo or breakfast sausage.
  • Add some chopped bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms to the chorizo for a more flavorful filling.
  • Top the burrito bowls with your favorite toppings, such as avocado, salsa, sour cream, or cheese.
  • If you're making the burrito bowls ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat the burrito bowls, microwave them on high for 1-2 minutes, or until heated through.

Conclusion:

Chorizo breakfast burrito bowls are an easy and delicious way to start your day. They're packed with protein and flavor, and they're also incredibly versatile. You can customize them to your liking by adding your favorite toppings and fillings. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast, give these chorizo breakfast burrito bowls a try.
