Notes

Store leftover chorizo and eggs in an airtight container for up to three days.
You can also freeze chorizo con huevos. You can make burritos and freeze to eat on the go! Defrost overnight in the refrigerator and heat in the microwave for a minute at the time until heated thru.
To reheat, melt some butter in a pan over medium low heat and reheat for a couple of minutes. This can also be reheating in the microwave for a couple of minutes depending on the amount of leftovers you have.
