Preparation
  1. Gather all your ingredients. Chop onions, tomatoes, and cilantro, and have your cooked chorizo or ground beef ready.
  2. In a medium bowl, crack the large eggs and add the milk. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk until fluffy.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the cooked chorizo or ground beef. Stir until heated through.
  2. Add the chopped onions and cook for about 2-3 minutes until they become translucent.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Stir gently with a spatula as the eggs begin to set. Cook until the eggs are fully scrambled yet still moist.
Assembly
  1. Lay a large tortilla flat on a plate. Spoon about 1/4 of the egg and meat mixture into the center and top it with diced tomatoes, cheese, and cilantro.
  2. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up from the bottom to seal your burrito. Repeat this for the remaining tortillas.
Serving
  1. Serve your burritos warm with sour cream and salsa on the side. Enjoy the burst of flavors!

Notes

Feel free to replace chorizo with Halal turkey sausage or plant-based meat for a lighter version. Make sure not to overcook the eggs; keeping them fluffy is key. If you're not huge on spice, choose a mild cheese and go easy on additional hot salsa until you find your ideal balance. For leftovers, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
