This isn't your typical sandwich.
Crispy toasted bread, spicy Chorizo, and cool vegetables come together in this recipe to create an unbelievably easy and delicious Torta. While we opted to top ours with the most commonly available vegetables, you can use whatever is on hand from jicama to carrots. If you're feeling extra fancy, or hungry, top it with an over-easy egg. Just make sure you have a fat stack of napkins at the ready.
