{NEW COOKING VIDEO!}

Well good morning once again from paradise!! I’m sitting in the kitchen of our rental looking out at the ocean, but now I’m all packed up and ready to leave in just a few minutes. Cabo has been amazing. Minus me drinking too much and losing my sh*t last night. Drinking and instagramming is bad idea. I had to do some deleting this morning. Yikes.

PaleOMG Mexican Chorizo Frittata

Anywhoooooo, let’s talk about this recipe so I forget my poor life decisions. This recipe is DELICIOUS!! I don’t personally eat eggs because I have a slight allergy to them and my husband can’t eat them at the moment and I had to make this recipe three separate times so my sister-in-law was one happy woman. But I did sneak a couple bites and it is so damn good!! If you’re on the whole30 train right now or just trying to clean up your diet in the New Year, this is a great start! And it can be sliced up and eaten throughout the week! Now go try this while I catch a flight back home to Colorado!

  3. Reader A says:

    Can you clarify whether we should use an 8 or 10 inch skillet? Video says and looks like 10, recipe says 8.

    1. juli says:

      8 inch! sorry about that!

  4. Brooke says:

    This looks amazing.

    And your Instagram stories were amazing–I laughed so hard.

    Anxiously awaiting your opinion on the Bachelor premiere 😉

    1. juli says:

      omg i can’t wait to watch!!!

  5. Jen says:

    That looks yummy. Any idea if there is a way to adapt the butcher box breakfast sausage to this recipe? I know I know… I should just go get chorizo at the store lol
    I love your IG stories, you’re hilarious! And like Brooke mentioned, can’t wait to hear your thoughts about the new bachelor!!

    1. juli says:

      use breakfast sausage and add lots of spices haha!! you can google chorizo spices and add those into it while you cook the meat!

  6. Rayna says:

    Hi Juli! Is there a certain brand of chorizo that you buy? I grew up in a dominantly Portuguese community and chorizo makes up about 90% of the cuisine here (no, but seriously). However delicious it may be, it is extremely fatty and filled with crap that I’m SURE would scar me for life if I truly knew. I’m just wondering what else is out there and what is worth trying. Thanks!

    1. juli says:

      i mention it in the cooking video, but i usually use mulay’s chorizo sausage which i purchase from natural grocers

  7. Anna T says:

    I love seeing “what I used to make this recipe” — great addition.

  8. PJ says:

    “Place an 8 inch seasoned cast iron skillet over medium heat. Break into small pieces.” Don’t think I can do that! 🙂

    1. juli says:

      haha all fixed

  9. Christina K says:

    gurrrl as I was watching your Instagram stories I was thinking “she is SO going to regret this” hahahahahaha but honestly you should just own it. Everyone deserves some drunk sloppy harmless fun every once in a while!

    ps this recipe looks really good, definitely going to try it soon

    1. juli says:

      if i hadn’t gotten so messy later on (not visible on ig) i would have kept those videos up lol but i had to erase some of my regret lol

    1. juli says:
