►What is Mexican Chorizo?

Try this versatile ingredient you can make from scratch.

All my life, I've eaten chorizo. Even as a toddler, my mom made chorizo and eggs for breakfast. She tells me that I would stuff it in my mouth by the handfuls.

All this time, it's always been this chorizo. It's quick, easy and inexpensive. It's less than $1.50, add a couple of eggs and you've got a great meal.

This chorizo is perfectly fine and I've even used it here at 24Bite for several recipes.

The problem is, of course, I always want to try things from scratch. We were out of chorizo and I wanted to see if I could do it.

I'm happy to say that I can do it and you can do it too!

Mexican chorizo is a highly seasoned sausage that you can use for any meal. You can make a delicious taco with some queso and sauce on a tortilla.

I'll tell you that I ate that whole taco in about two seconds after I took the photos.

To make things as easy as possible, I've used mild breakfast sausage, Jimmy Dean to be exact. Perfect, right?

Then, you simply add a bunch of spices. Lots and lots of spices.

Most of the time, I like to reconstitute dried chiles then run through the blender. This time, though, I was HUNGRY! I wanted something right away.
