Instructions
- Turn the oven on broil. Place the poblano peppers (I used 2 medium) on a sheet pan lined with foil and lightly coat in olive oil.
- Roast them in the oven until the skins are charred. Remove and place in a glass bowl and cover with plastic wrap for a few minutes. This will make the skins much easier to peel off. Then, peel the skins, remove the seeds, and chop. Turn the oven temperature down to 350F.
- Cook the chorizo sausage in a skillet until browned. While the chorizo is browning, add the eggs to a mixing bowl and mix well using a hand mixer, immersion blender or hand whisk.
- Drain the chorizo, remove and add to the bowl with the eggs. Sauté the onions for a few minutes, then add to the egg mixture along with the remaining ingredients, reserving 1 cup of the shredded cheese.
- Pour into a 9" x 13" casserole baking dish that’s been sprayed with non-stick spray. Top with the remaining shredded cheese. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the eggs have set. Allow to cool slightly before cutting into.
- Optional: Top with more chopped fresh cilantro, sliced avocado and crumbled queso fresco before serving.
Notes
- Macros do not include the optional queso fresco and avocado toppings.
