Eggs with Green Beans and Chorizo
Huevos con Ejotes y ChorizoA skillet full of scrambled eggs with fresh green beans and spicy chorizo sausage is a complete meal in a pan. This is an egg dish made for a late breakfast (almuerzo), that's eaten about 11 o'clock in Mexico. Business people often gather in restaurants for this meal. The early breakfast (desayuno) taken at home, usually consists only of coffee and pan dulce (sweet roll). Packaged chorizo can be greasy, so if you prefer, use bulk chorizo from a butcher, or substitute Mexican Pork Sausage. Add fresh salsa and some black beans to the meal, if you're feeding big appetites.
