The sweetness from the sweet potatoes is the perfect complement to the spicy chorizo inside these make-ahead burritos. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze. Take one out of the freezer and thaw in the fridge overnight for a quick breakfast.
Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes , scrubbed and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 3 greens onions , chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
2
Place sweet potatoes and green onions on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine and spread out evenly.

Roast in the preheated oven until soft, about 25 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook chorizo in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, breaking apart with a wooden spoon, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain any excess fat; transfer chorizo to a bowl and set aside to cool. Wipe out the skillet and return it to the stove.

5
Whisk eggs in a medium bowl until smooth. Heat butter in the skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in eggs and scramble until just set, 3 to 5 minutes. Scrape scrambled eggs into a clean bowl and let cool.

6
Line up tortillas in assembly-line fashion. Divide chorizo between 8 tortillas. Top each with a portion of sweet potato-onion mixture, scrambled eggs, 1 tablespoon salsa, and queso fresco. Fold the bottom of each tortilla up over filling, then fold in both sides and roll up burritos.

7
Flip burritos so they are seam-side down. Wrap each individually with aluminum foil and place into a resealable plastic bag.

Creamy Morel Mushroom Soup
If you are a fan of fresh (or even dried) morel mushrooms, this is the soup for you. Everyone who eats morels knows that they go best sautéed with onions, garlic, and butter. This incorporates all of those ingredients to create a magnificently creamy soup, strong with morel flavor, but not too overpowering. Serve with crusty bread or garlic croutons.
Instant Pot Seafood Gumbo
I took one of my favorite gumbo recipes and converted it to cook in the Instant Pot. Chock-full of shrimp, scallops, and cod, it is cooked in a roux that incorporates Louisiana beer.
Cheesecake Brownies
These cheesecake brownies are a jazzed-up version of an out-of-the-box brownie mix with an easy cheesecake topping.
