Here is my favorite affordable, stick to your ribs breakfast. I usually make this for 6 (And they are a big 6!). (Plus it is easy and the kids can do most of it!)
12 large eggs: approx $2
1 tube (I believe it is a pound) chorizo approx: $1.20
Cheese slices or a little grated cheddar: $2.50
Frozen southern style hashbrowns: $1 at dollar store
Tortillas: $1 at dollar store
Total: $6-8 total for 4-6 servings
I cook up the hashbrowns in a little margarine until they are cooked through and golden brown. Heat the chorizo in a saucepan until warm while scrambling the eggs. Throw the cooked chorizo and scrambled eggs into the hashbrowns and do a light mix. Warm your tortillas, add the potato mixture and add either a slice of cheese or some grated cheese and wrap it up. This usually is enough for 8-10 HUGE burritos.
Options:
Cut and fry regular potato cubes instead of frozen hash browns
onion
other breakfast meats
other types of cheese
It may be simple but the kids love it.
