Be a breakfast hero. Or a dinner hero for that matter. Make hash.
This version is warmingly spicy and supremely comforting. Perfect for a hangover, a cold rain day, or the shelter in place dull drums. It’s also a great way to get rid of junk in the fridge.
If making this for breakfast, you can make the potatoes and chorizo business the night before (a good idea pre-bender) and then reheat in the oven while you fix the eggs. I like mine over easy, ymmv.
