Ingredients

  • 2 large potatoes, peeled and chopped into small chunks
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 1 pound turkey chorizo or breakfast sausage
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 tomato, chopped
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese
  • 12 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • kosher salt, to taste

Directions

Step 1 –Bring a small saucepan of salted water to a boil.

Step 3 –Heat 1 teaspoon of the vegetable oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat.

Step 4 –Add the chorizo, pepper, tomatoes, and onion, and saute, breaking the meat up into small pieces, until just cooked through, about 6 -7 minutes.
