Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 4 eggs; 1 1/2 cups cream (or a blend of milk and cream, your choice); 6 mushrooms, sliced; 2 green onions, sliced; 6 ounces chorizo sausage; 3/4 cup cheddar cheese, grated; 1 teaspoon oregano; 1/2 teaspoon onion powder; 1/2 teaspoon cayenne (to taste); 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste); 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Servings: persons

4 eggs
1 1/2 cups cream (or a blend of milk and cream, your choice)
6 mushrooms, sliced
2 green onions, sliced
6 ounces chorizo sausage
3/4 cup cheddar cheese, grated
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne (to taste)
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1
In a medium mixing bowl, stir together eggs, cream (or mixture of milk and cream) and spices, set aside.
2
Saute chopped mushrooms, green onions and chorizo together in a pan until mushrooms and chorizo are no longer raw, about 5 - 7 minutes. You may need a dash of olive oil to prevent sticking.
3
Have ready a buttered baking dish (I used a cast-iron scone pan, see photo). Place chorizo mixture on the bottom, then cheese, then pour egg mixture over top. Sprinkle with paprika, if desired.
4
Bake at 375 degrees for 20-40 minutes, depending on your pan and your oven. CHECK OFTEN as ovens vary. My cast iron scone pan only took 20 minutes!
5
Cook until slightly brown on top and eggs do not jiggle. Let set for 10 minutes. You might sprinkle extra green onions or chili flakes on top, if you like - get creative! Sliced black olives make a nice touch.
