I made this tonight....added diced potatoes to the pan and sauteed before adding chorizo....also added a can of rotel and used the birdseye steamfresh southwest corn instead of the canned corn. I also couldnt find the seamless cresent dough, so I just pressed together the regular cresent dough...

To make this more dinner like, I added a package of Taco Seasoning to the meat, doubled the recipe and put it in a lasagna pan. I also changed the green onions to regular and sauteed some onion with the meat, then sauteed some onion, green and red pepper to add to the egg mixture. It was a hit.

I have made this recipe four different times and everyone has enjoyed it very much. I was never able to find in my stores the Pillsbury creation sheet dough so I used one time pizza crust and at another time used pie crust, both were delicious.

I made it and my family loved it. I will make it again. I added sour cream and salsa to my meat mixture though.
