Ingredients

  • 2 medium red-skin potatoes cut into ½-inch cubes about 1 ½ cups
  • 6 ounces Mexican chorizo sausage casing removed
  • 1 small yellow onion finely chopped
  • 10 ounces baby bella or cremini mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 12 soft corn tortillas

Optional Toppings:

  • Lime
  • Cilantro
  • Cotija Cheese
  • Salsa

Instructions

  • In a medium pot, add potatoes and cover with water about 1 inch above the potatoes. Place the pot on a burner on high and boil until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, and set aside.
  • In a large cast iron skillet over medium heat, combine the chorizo and onion. Sauté, stirring very frequently, until sausage is cooked through and onion is soft, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 5-7 minutes more until the mushrooms have cooked down.
  • Add the potatoes and stir to combine. Let the entire mixture cook for about 5 minutes more until the potatoes are just golden brown.
  • Reduce the heat to low and set aside.
  • Wrap tortillas in a warm, damp kitchen towel, put them on a microwave-safe plate dish, and warm them in the microwave for 4 minutes.
  • Top each tortilla with the mushroom, potato chorizo mixture and any desired toppings and serve immediately.

Notes

Go wild with your toppings! Guacamole is a must for me.
