1 small red onion, finely diced
3 medium sized red potatoes (unpeeled), washed and diced into 1/2 inch cubes

Salt
Pepper
Flour tortillas

  1. Whisk eggs in a bowl and set aside in refrigerator.
  2. In a large non-stick skillet or frying pan cook the chorizo over medium heat until done, stirring frequently.
  3. Add onion and saute with the chorizo for abour 2 minutes
  4. Add oil and potatoes to the chorizo and cook until potatoes are tender, stirring and turning frequently.
  5. Add eggs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  6. Sreamble-fry all together until eggs are thoroughly cooked.
  7. Serve warm with flour (or corn) tortillas.
