Avocado Salsa
- Mix together all of the salsa ingredients in a medium bowl. Cover and chill in refrigerator.
Burritos
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chorizo until browned and cooked through, breaking up with the back of a wooden spoon, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel.
- Add the potatoes to the skillet and cook, covered, stirring occasionally until soft, about 6 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Transfer to plate with chorizo.
- Whisk eggs and sprinkle with salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add eggs to same skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring until eggs are softly set, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the chorizo and potatoes to the skillet and toss with the eggs to warm through and finish cooking the eggs.
- Warm tortillas either in a microwave or in a skillet to make pliable. Place about 1/2 cup of the egg mixture on a tortilla, top with cheese; then salsa and fold tortilla over to make a taco. Serve with sour cream and hot sauce on the side.
