This is a SPICY dish! It is one of my own creations from scratch, so If the Chorizo is enough heat for you do NOT add serrano or chili powder! This is great served with chips and sour cream and/or quesadillas. p.s. I get the Soy-Rizo at Trader Joes. Usually I use real meats, but in this case I really love the veggie.
