This was delicious! Definitely different from any of the traditional quiche recipes. I would only recommend that cooks actually use paper towels to blot any remaining oil from the cooked chorizo before adding to eggs. Mine was "well-drained" but the oil was still enough to make the eggs separate.

It's still yummy . . . thanks for sharing!

This dish was one of the first to go at a Mexican themed potluck lunch. Everyone loved it. Different. Pretty dish. Very easy to make. I did blot the chorizo with towels - good idea. Will definitely make again.
