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.
