Ingredients

  • Spray oil
  • 200 g chorizo sausage skin removed and chopped.
  • Small red onion chopped
  • 1 green chilli de-seeded and diced
  • 100 g button mushrooms sliced
  • 4 eggs lightly beaten
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 60 g low fat grated cheese
  • 2 large corn tortillas

Instructions

  • Spray a large pan with the cooking oil spray and place the pan over a medium heat.
  • Add the chopped chorizo and cook and stir until browned but not burnt and the juices have been released into the pan, about 3 mins.
  • Add the onion and cook for another 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the chilli pepper and button mushrooms and cook for a further 2 minutes.
  • Whilst the vegetables are cooking mix the eggs in a bowl with the seasoning.
  • When the vegetables are cooked add the egg mixture to the pan and cook over a low heat stirring every now and then to scramble them and cook them. This should only take 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Lay the tortillas out and divide the filling between them making sure you keep the filling in the centre and then sprinkle the grated cheese on top.
  • Pull the bottom half of the burrito over to meet the top half. Then, pull the tortilla back. This will form the filling into a roll. Next, fold one side in and then the other side.
  • With both ends folded, tightly roll your tortilla until you have a perfect, beautiful burrito. Cut in half and serve hot.
