Keto Chorizo Patty Egg Bites
Bite into these egg bites to reveal a spicy chorizo patty and melted pepper jack cheese. You may not find these best for “grab-and-go” snacks, as chorizo can get a little messy to eat, but it is delicious to enjoy while you’re at home or want a fast breakfast.

Can you keep these in fridge for a few days?

When do you add cream?

Add the cream with the eggs in Step 2! Thank you for pointing out this oversight to the recipe team!

It helps the eggs bind together.

I would assume you add it to the eggs when you scramble them.
