Super Easy Breakfast for Dinner Meal

I'm still raiding my pantry for dinner ideas. My hubby made pancakes for dinner yesterday. I've been craving some huevo con chorizo burritos for the past week and since I have lots of potatoes I decided to make a casserole out those ingredients. While waiting for everything to come together in the oven I saw that there was a bag of masa harina from the time my mom visited & decided to make some corn gorditas & stuff them with my chorizo mixture. The result was so good I will continue making this on a regular basis.

Easy basic ingredients. I cut and sautéed the potatoes added some adobo, sazon and garlic powder. After the potatoes were done I browned the Chorizo in the same pan. I took out my glass casserole dish added the potatoes, then the cooked chorizo mixture which I had seasoned with a little bit of cumin and oregano. I scrambled ten eggs with a little bit of milk then poured the eggs on top of the potatoes and chorizo. It all went in the oven at 350 degrees until the eggs were cooked, I did mix towards the end. I would have added some cheese to get that oozy goodness from melted cheese but since this a pantry raid meal I didn't have any on hand.

I took it out of the oven once the egg was cooked thoroughly. While everything was baking I made the gorditas out of the 2 cups of masa harina, about 2 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of salt. Mixed everything by hand & was able to make ten medium sized balls. I heated up a small pot with some oil pressed the balls into patties and dropped them into the hot oil. When the patties were golden I tok them out and drained them on paper towels let them cool slightly then used a small knife to make a small slit so I can stuff them with my mixture.

These were delicious!! The only changes I will make next time is to add some cheese to the casserole and add some green tomatillo salsa.
