If you’re planning a tailgate, don’t forget breakfast! It’s a day-long event, and starting it off right with something to help you soak up the day is the best plan. Maybe take an aspirin too, lol. These tailgate-worthy bites are the perfect accompaniment to beer, or orange juice if you must. Have a little hot sauce around if you feel like shaking some on.

Directions
Steam the potatoes as directed on the packaging.
Place each potato in the recess of a muffin tin, then drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Use a bottle or shot glass to press and indent into the center of each potato, pushing the excess potato up the sides of each muffin cup.
In a small skillet on medium-high heat, add the oil and chorizo. Cook, using a wooden spatula to break up the chorizo to resemble ground beef, until cooked through and golden, then remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Fill the potatoes with the ingredients in this order: 1 teaspoon cheese, 2 teaspoons salsa, 2 teaspoons chorizo, and finally, 1 more teaspoon cheese. Bake until the tops are melted and golden, about 15 minutes. Garnish with the sour cream, hot sauce, cilantro and scallions. Serve warm or at room temperature.
