Eggs have long been one of my breakfast staples and I have shared many seriously tasty egg recipes. When I saw these chorizo scrambled eggs on Epicurious, I knew I had to give them a try.

I loved it so much, I decided to make another variation of my popular scrambled eggs.

This super chorizo and egg scramble is made in one medium sized skillet and you only need five ingredients:

• Olive oil
• Red onion
• Chorizo (use the Spanish variety)
• Baby Spinach
• Eggs

This breakfast is perfect for low carb or paleo lifestyles. However, if you are following a keto lifestyle then simply omit the red onion.
