Selena Gomez has gone viral for some of her favorite foods over the years—like the three-ingredient “mini pizza” snack we all tried, her quirky snow cone flavor, and, of course, the pickle juice popcorn segment on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.” Hey, the girl has a thing for unique flavors.
And when Gomez loves something, she really loves it. She’s claimed to eat the same sandwich every day for lunch and can rattle off her go-to fast-food order like it’s second nature.
Most of her favorite foods tend to lean toward Tex-Mex flavors, a nod to her Texas roots. So it’s no surprise that one of Gomez’s daily staples is a hearty Tex-Mex favorite that hits the spot every time—because, according to her now-husband Benny Blanco, she craves “the same thing every day.”
The Breakfast Benny Blanco Makes Selena Gomez Every Day
After Gomez and Blanco’s internet-breaking engagement announcement, fans couldn’t help but notice that food seems to play a big part in their relationship. Oh yes, we also spotted the Taco Bell box in the corner of their engagement photos.
While Gomez might be on an impressive culinary journey herself—thanks to her shows “Selena + Chef” and “Selena + Restaurant”—Blanco has a sharp set of kitchen skills of his own, even releasing a cookbook earlier this year. In fact, it’s Blanco who usually takes the lead at breakfast.
Several months ago, during an appearance on “The Howard Stern Show,” Blanco revealed he tries to make the actress her favorite breakfast “every single day.”

So, what’s the routine order of his food-loving fiancé? Chorizo and eggs. Whether served in a tortilla, quesadilla, or over rice and beans, “she wants some version of that” on the daily, Blanco shared.
And honestly, we get it. There’s something so comforting about having the same favorite meal every day—especially when it’s packed with protein and big flavors that keep you going until lunch.
How To Make Selena Gomez’s Favorite Breakfast
Chorizo and eggs are simple to make and endlessly customizable. Whether you prefer yours in a burrito, a hash brown bowl, or Migas-style with crispy tortilla strips, this combo makes the perfect base for a satisfying breakfast.
Here’s our top-rated method:
- Cook the chorizo: Heat a greased nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a 1/4 cup of Mexican-style chorizo and cook, stirring, until browned—about 5 minutes.
- Add the eggs: In a bowl, whisk together 6 eggs and a pinch of salt. Pour the eggs over the chorizo in the skillet and cook, stirring, until the eggs are just set.
So, let the records show that, once again, the way to someone’s heart is through their stomach. Gomez and Blanco’s love for food—and each other—has fans swooning, and we can’t help but think this breakfast played a small part in their love story.
Maybe we should start calling it “Marry Me” chorizo and eggs. Just a thought.
