Mexican Breakfast Bowl for the Win!
Whether it is a breakfast, lunch or dinner, I simply love a good bowl. You can often find me making Savory Breakfast Bowl, Simple Thai Noodle Bowl, Orang Ginger Salmon Noodle Bowl, Chicken Burrito Bowl…You get the picture. I just love my bowls.
The idea of mixing and matching all my favorite ingredients into a bowl, and have your whole meal in that one bowl, is super appealing. You can easily transport them and eat them anywhere! In the dining room, on the couch, on the kitchen counter, outside on your porch…
I wanted to create a Mexican / Tex-Mex / Southwest theme breakfast bowl because living in Austin, Texas for the last few years have really opened my eyes to the gorgeous flavors of Mexican inspired ingredients and spices.
This recipe is inspired by all the Breakfast Tacos and Migas I have consumed and fallen in love with since I have lived here.
The end product is this: a bowl filled with classic breakfast comfort foods we all know and love, along with seasonings and ingredients that are inspired by Mexican cuisine. It is as cozy and delicious as it sounds, consisting of…
- Scrambled eggs with tortilla chips (very similar to migas)
- Chorizo (ground sausage that is slightly spicy)
- Black Beans
- Avocado
- Salsa
- Cilantro (garnish)
- BRIANNAS Chipotle Ranch Dressing (garnish)
They all come together like a dream. And I cannot get enough of it!
I get my BRIANNAS dressings from HEB, my local grocery store. They are widely available all over the nation…locate them using the BRIANNAS’ store locator!
Or even better, have them ship to directly your door from BRIANNAS online store HERE!
Let’s Make It!
There are multiple components to this bowl, and each of them are fairly straight forward:
- Scrambled eggs (with tortilla chips)
- Chorizo
- Other toppings: black beans, salsa, avocado etc
Scrambled Eggs with Tortilla Chips
Let’s begin with the eggs we are scrambling along with tortilla chips. This is a strip down version of migas, where we scramble the eggs and add crushed tortilla chips right before the eggs are fully cooked.
A few tips and tricks to bear in mind:
- Grease skillet well before adding whisked eggs.
- Cook the eggs slowly under low heat.
- When the eggs are partially cooked, start stirring.
- Do not overcook! Remove from heat promptly when eggs are done.
Chorizo (Mexican Ground Sausage)
Chorizo is a type of pork sausage that originated from Spain. There are different versions of it today, but I am using one commonly found in Mexican cuisine.
It is boldly flavored, and I’m adding a little bit of BRIANNAS Chipotle Ranch dressing because it adds delicious chipotle flavors (which I love) to it and also makes it slightly creamier too.
And let’s be honestly here, I am also finding an excuse to add more of that yummy dressing because it is so dang good.
Just panfry chorizo on a skillet and add some Chipotle Ranch Dressing and you are good to go! Easy peasy!
Assembling everything together
And now we are going to put everything together…
Combine the eggs, chorizo, black beans (from canned), avocado and salsa into a bowl.
And add some cilantro and drizzle more Chipotle Ranch Dressing to the top!
And with that, you get yourself a yummy Mexican inspired Breakfast Bowl!
