chorizo baked eggs

the hubs works nights, so the bulk of our time together is spent hanging out in the morning.
we are big believers in enjoying our morning routine. we start with the news or netflix food documentary as we sip our french pressed coffee. we spend some time scoping out our small side yard garden and then cooking up some breakfast before we go our separate ways for the day.
wes found a great deal on eggs so i'm currently working my way through five dozen eggs.
the garden is booming so we had some great fresh ingredients to inspire us. the jalapenos, bell pepper, oregano and basil we picked fresh really took this bold breakfast to another level.
