I grew up eating Chorizo con Huevos and never did anyone in my family ever add bell peppers. So I omitted them. I went ahead and added more Serrano Chiles to make up for the bell peppers. Good recipe.

Good basic chorizo and egg burrito recipe. I liked that the chorizo was cooked separately and drained before adding to the eggs. Chorizo is so greasy and needs that extra step. The bell pepper added nothing and I would leave that out next time or just double up on the jalapeno.
