Make scrambled eggs a bit more exciting with these Paleo Mexican Scrambled Eggs. Such delicious breakfast guaranteed to please a crowd!

Paleo Mexican Scrambled Eggs

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know how much I love spicy food. I’m that girl who asks for hot sauce every time when dining out at a restaurant. So when I had an opportunity to check out Don Victor®‘s hot sauces and create a recipe using one of them, I was thrilled to take part in it.

Don Victor Hot Sauces

I was especially intrigued with these hot sauces because they are made with piquin peppers, which are very small peppers from northern Mexico. I’ve never heard of them and I’m always down for trying new foods, and Don Victor®‘s sauces are the only ones you will find on the market that are made entirely from this pepper. So unique and special, right?

I tried out 3 of their sauces: Don Victor® Red Piquin Hot Sauce, Don Victor® Extra Hot Piquin Hot Sauce, and Don Victor® Green Piquin Hot Sauce. I decided to use the Red Piquin Hot Sauce, because I loved how it packed a bright and spicy punch, with just the right about amount of dry, smoky heat that goes well with anything. Also, I love how simple and clean the ingredients are, which is the first thing I look at when I’m choosing a new product:

Red piquin pepper, water, carrot, apple cider vinegar, garlic, salt, oregano, preservatives

One of the first meals I made using the hot sauce was this Paleo Mexican Scrambled Eggs. I’m usually not a huge fan of scrambled eggs (I prefer my yolks runny and uncooked), so if I do make it, it has to extra yummy. Well, thanks to the addition of spices and Don Victor® Red Piquin Hot Sauce, I ended up making a scrambled eggs recipe that was spicy, tasty, and so full of flavor.

    This is probably a very strange question, but since I’m allergic to eggs (both whites and yolks) as well as soy, can you suggest something I can use as a substitute? Thank you very much.

      I wouldn’t make this recipe if you are allergic to eggs. It’s the main ingredient. But you can try the same spices with cubed potatoes or sweet potatoes.

    This was great and super easy to make! I substituted the tomatoes with canned petite tomatoes with green chilis. Served it on toast spread with guacamole. It was amazing!
