Start the day with some chorizo breakfast burritos
Everyone agrees a good breakfast is a great start to your day. All the better if you can make it ahead of time and carry it with you in the a.m. Grab-and-go breakfast burritos are a lifesaver on those busy mornings when just getting out the door on time seems like an accomplishment.
These warm flour tortillas wrapped around bacon, potatoes and the optional egg have been a runaway hit ever since they appeared on a menu at Tia Sophia’s in Santa Fe, New Mexico, in the mid-1970s. Today, even Mcdonald’s and Taco Bell include them among their breakfast items.
Yet homemade is always better, and this breakfast burrito hits on all cylinders. Filled with a zesty mix of scrambled egg, chorizo sausage, crispy tater tots and Mexican cheese, it’s a hearty and sublime mix of contrasting textures and flavors. It also includes a zesty sour cream sauce for some smoky heat.
I was inspired to make these burritos after spying a package of Salvadoran-style chorizo sausage from Logan’s Sausage Co. in a grocery store near my daughters’ apartment in Arlington, Virginia. Seasoned with vinegar, paprika, garlic and other spices, it’s not as spicy as Mexican chorizo, but still wonderfully tangy and bright.
The best thing about burritos is that they’re incredibly versatile. If you don’t care for chorizo, you can substitute bacon, ham or Italian sausage, or black or refried beans. You can also replace the tater tots with precut hash browns.
For a tamer burrito, cut the amount of minced chipotle or sauce in the sour cream or omit it altogether. Don’t forget pico de gallo or your favorite salsa for dipping.
These can be eaten fresh from the skillet or be reheated the next morning in the toaster oven. They also can be wrapped in aluminum foil, placed in a resealable plastic bag and be frozen and reheated as needed.
CRUNCHY CHORIZO BREAKFAST BURRITOS
For chipotle sour cream
⅓ cup sour cream
1 or 2 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, minced, plus 1 tablespoon sauce
Juice from ½ lime
Salt
For burritos
3 tablespoons vegetable or
canola oil, divided
2 cups thawed frozen tater tots 12 ounces chorizo sausage, casings removed (I used Salvadoran style)
8 large eggs, beaten with a little
water or milk
2 green onions, diced
1 cup shredded Mexican-style
cheese
½ cup roasted tomato salsa or
pico de gallo, optional 6 10-inch flour tortillas
In small bowl, stir together sour cream, minced chipotle chiles and
sauce and lime juice until well blended. Add a pinch of salt, stir and then set aside while you prepare the burritos.
Make burritos: In large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil until hot and shimmering. Add tater tots to pan in a single layer and, using a spatula, press into bottom of pan to flatten. Cook tots until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a papertowel lined plate and set aside while you make the eggs.
Wipe skillet clean with a damp paper towel, bring to medium heat and add chorizo. Cook sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as you go, until it is crumbly (it should look like ground meat), and is well browned and slightly crispy.
Add beaten eggs and cook until they start to set, using a rubber spatula to toss and turn the eggs as they cook to keep them from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Stir in chopped green onion and toss gently to combine.
Reduce heat to low, and sprinkle shredded cheese on top of eggs, then gently fold in. Cook until cheese starts to melt, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and cover to keep egg mixture warm while you prepare the tortillas.
Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for about 10 seconds to soften. To assemble burritos, spread a tablespoon of chipotle sour cream on the bottom third of each tortilla, leaving a ¾ -inch border.
Layer one-sixth of the tater tots on top of the sour cream, followed by one-sixth of the egg mixture.
Fold sides of tortilla over filling, then fold up the bottom and roll tightly around filling.
Wipe the skillet clean again with a paper towel, then add remaining 1 tablespoon oil and heat until shimmering over medium heat. Place burritos in pan, seam side down, and cook until they’re golden and crispy, turning once, about 1-2 minutes per side.
Serve warm with salsa or pico de gallo on the side, or slice and wrap in aluminum foil for breakfast on the go. Makes 6 burritos. — Gretchen Mckay, Postgazette
Imagine a pill that can start helping you get around more easily in just a matter of days.
Then think of how great it would be for your joints to begin feeling better too.
Well there’s no need to imagine. A team of scientists have delivered an amazing new joint pill whose active ingredients have been clinically shown to improve mobility and relieve joint pain.
Now, after years of development and testing, it’s now available to joint sufferers across the U.S.
Patients who have trialed the patented new breakthrough found in Flexjointplus have reported a huge reduction in pain and a new lease on life.
Sufferers currently rely on prescription drugs or costly injections, which have dangerous side effects.
But Upstate New York senior Paul Sansbury says his knee pain has gone from 8 out of 10 to zero after just 7 days, and no longer needs a cane.
“I needed a left knee replacement, but since using Flexjointplus, I have less pain. I can walk...i feel much comfort...and I ditched my cane. I am 82 years old,” he says.
WHAT SCIENTISTS DISCOVERED
Flexjointplus contains an amazing compound with a known ability to rebuild damaged cartilage and ligaments associated with joint pain.
This compound not a drug. It is active ingredient Flexjointplus.
Studies show it naturally reduces in lammation while repairing bone and cartilage in the joint.
Many joint pain sufferers see an increase in lexibility and mobility. Others are able to get back to doing the things they love.
“My left hip joint was so stiff and painful I could barely get to sleep at night,” says Amanda Johnson of Chatham, ON. “but since using Flexjointplus my pain and stiffness has been relieved, and I am now able to get a good night’s rest again.”
With so much positive feedback, it’s easy to see why sales for this newly approved joint pain pill continue to climb every day.

IMPRESSIVE BENEFITS FOR JOINT PAIN SUFFERERS
The 8 week clinical study was carried out by scientists across six different clinic sites in Germany. The results were published in the Journal of Arthritis in July 2014.
The study involved patients with a variety of joint pain conditions associated with osteoarthritis.
They were not instructed to change their daily routines. They were only told to take Flexjointplus’ active ingredient every day.
The results were incredible.
Taking Flexjointplus’ active ingredient just once daily signi icantly reduced both joint pain and stiffness compared to placebo at 7, 30, and 60 days.
In fact, many patients experienced greater than 50% reduction in pain and stiffness at 60 days.
They also enjoyed an improvement in stiffness when irst getting out of the bed in the morning, and an improvement in pain when doing light household chores.
With these studies medical doctors and researchers have now proven the active ingredients in Flexjointplus to be a clinically effective treatment for reducing pain and stiffness associated with joint and connective tissue disorders, especially osteoarthritis.
The indings are impressive, no doubt, but results will vary.
But with results like these it’s easy to see why thousands of callers are jamming the phone lines trying to get their hands on Flexjointplus.
HOW IT REBUILDS DAMAGED JOINTS
Scientists have discovered that after the age of 40 the body is no longer able to ef iciently repair bone and cartilage in the joint. This results in deterioration and in lammation in the joint, leading to pain.
The natural compound found in Flexjointplus contains the necessary ingredients needed for the body to help maintain damaged bone and cartilage.
This compound as ‘NEM’®.
“Essentially, it contains the same elements found in your joints, which are needed to repair and maintain cartilage and ligaments,” explains Chief Researcher, Roger Lewis.
is known
There also have been no adverse side effects reported with the use of NEM®.
This is a bonus for pain sufferers who have been taking prescription and over the counter medications that can cause severe gastric irritation over time, like NSAIDS. This seems to be another reason why Flexjointplus’ release has triggered such a frenzy of sales.
RECOMMENDED BY U.S. MEDICAL DOCTORS
“Based on my 20 years of experience treating people with osteoarthritis, Flexjointplus receives my highest recommendation to any person suffering from joint pain and stiffness,” said Dr. David Vallance, Rheumatologist from Ann Arbor, MI.
“One of my patients taking Flexjointplus has reported a signi icant decrease in pain when going up or down stairs, sitting with legs bent for an extended period of time, and even getting up from a seated position,” said Dr. Richard Gibson, chiropractor from Windsor, ON.
“I use Flexjointplus everyday for my stiff and aching joints. I also have my wife and daughter taking it regularly as well,” said Dr. Oozer, G.P. from Lasalle, CA.
