Food Porn Friday – Episode 16: Mexico

I’ve had Mexican food on the brain this week, guys. It’s ridiculous. I had a burrito on Monday for lunch from Tortilla and I can’t stop thinking about it. I know I can’t regularly eat burritos, but why not? Don’t they contain all your important food groups? Beans, meat, vegetables, CHEESE?

Luckily, Buzzfeed have handily compiled a list of 18 brunch-y burritos, of which I will now select some highlights:

The classic – sausage, egg, sun-dried tomato and every burrito’s hero, avocado.

The healthy one – I am so in to the sweet potato, salty cheese, creamy avocado combination.

The extreme – pulled pork, scrambled egg, melted cheese. My heart races a little just thinking about it.

It’s cheating to use Buzzfeed to do my dirty work, however, so let’s expand our Mexican breakfast horizons a little, shall we? Jamie Oliver has kindly provided some help here with the classic Huevos Rancheros:

Eggs baked in a chilli tomato sauce, served inside tortilla wraps – the ultimate hangover cure, to set your stomach on fire.

And what about a Mexican twist on a classic – eggs benedict?

With chorizo muffins, a chipotle hollandaise and sliced avocado to cool things off, this couldn’t fulfil any more of my cravings right now.

So guys, what’s your perfect breakfast burrito? Would you like to see Best Brunch Ever visit any more countries? Let me know in the comments, and I’ll see you in a fortnight!
