This was good. I used a can of tomatoes instead of fresh tomatoes and regular ham since I have no idea what Serrano is. Hubby said he couldn't taste the chorizo. maybe I didn't use enough. He said I should have added enchilada sauce, so I did the next time and it was still good. this is a keeper for family meals, but probably not for serving to guests.
