Tips:

  • If you don't have chorizo, you can substitute another type of cooked sausage, such as breakfast sausage or Spanish chorizo.
  • Add your favorite vegetables to the scramble, such as diced bell peppers, onions, or spinach.
  • Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese. Cheddar, Monterey Jack, and pepper Jack are all good options.
  • Serve the scramble immediately, while the chips are still crispy.

Conclusion:

Potato chip scrambled eggs with chorizo is a quick and easy breakfast that is sure to please everyone at the table. The combination of crispy potato chips, savory chorizo, and fluffy eggs is irresistible. This dish is also a great way to use up leftover potato chips.
