I make this a with a twist ... I fry up some potatoes, and when they are almost done I add Chorico and Linguica both, cut long ways into half then into slices. I add green peppers and onions, a touch of salt and pepper, and then scramble the eggs into it. My family LOVES it. I also do it with left over meats from Folar de Chaves which includes ham and marinated pork for our clan. Always a family favorite!!!
