Instructions

Step 1

Place the onions in your pan over medium heat with 1 tablespoon ghee.

Step 2

Sauté, stirring frequently, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Step 3

Add the chopped tempeh to the pan and use your spatula to chop it up as you would ground beef.

Step 4

Cook the tempeh for about 5 minutes, stirring and chopping. Add the walnuts, apple cider vinegar, cumin, garlic powder, ancho chili power, oregano, coriander, cinnamon, salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup water. Stir the spices in. Once the water evaporates, add the ketchup and remaining 1/4 cup water.

Step 5

Continue to sauté, stirring frequently until the water evaporates and the chorizo is completely coated and looks saucy.

Step 6

While the chorizo is cooking, place your eggs in a pan over medium heat with 1 tablespoon ghee. Allow to cook until the translucent part of the eggs is white but the yellow center is still drippy.

Step 7

Place a handful of greens onto your plate. Top with your sunny side up eggs and a big scoop or two or chorizo. Add avocado slices and cilantro to the plate and enjoy!
