Fabulous! I'm glad it worked for you. What have you made with the
chorizo or are you just doing chorizo & eggs for now?

Hey, biscuits & gravy is just as easy!

Take any amount of commercial bulk sausage and brown it. The stuff
they make these days isn't very fatty, so I won't tell you to drain
and leave a little fat in the pan... anyway, sprinkle a little all
purpose flour over the browned sausage and stir it around for a minute
which cooks the flour but doesn't brown it, then add milk. You're
making a kinda sorta béchamel (so eyeball the fat, flour & milk
accordingly) with chunks of sausage in it... cover and let thicken
like you would any flour based cream sauce. Correct the seasonings
with salt & pepper. I like to add a drop or two of Lea & Perrins at
the end to round out flavors.

Serve over split biscuits.

The can popping type biscuit is fine for biscuits & gravy. You don't
need to get fancy for this and everything is finished at the same
time! HTH
