Chorizo Scrambled Egg Breakfast Taco

Growing up in a Portuguese family, I have many many memories of traditional Portuguese dishes that my mom cooked for us.   Many of the recipes included one of my all time favorite sausages, Linguica.  When I was sent this hispanic recipe for Chorizo Scrambled Egg Breakfast Taco, it brought me back to the many times my mom would cook breakfast for dinner......scrambled eggs, linguica (similar to chorizo), toast and milk.  

IMUSA is a leader in Hispanic cookware and they invited me to share their recipe with you all!  If you think you will be feeding a crowd over this upcoming holiday break, you might want to try this delectible dish...
