Chorizo is usually mixed with egg for burritos. There are two types of
chorizo; there is a firm sausage that is bit like a chili flavored polish
sausage, and there is a soft paste in a tube. You need to find the
paste-like chorizo for your burritos. I prefer the pork; there is also
beef.

Cook a little chorizo (two to four ounces - a couple of inches of the tube)
as you would brown ground beef. When you are done, there will be firm
cooked meat in a pool of chili flavored grease. Then cook one or two eggs
in the meat/grease mixture as you would scramble eggs. When the eggs are
done, roll the chorizo/egg mixture in a large flour tortilla.
