Herbed Spanish Omelet Recipe

"Omelets are one of the simplest and easiest breakfast dishes you can cook. They only take a few basic ingredients, can be prepared in minutes, and are completely customizable. Whether you enjoy just a classic ham and cheese omelet or like to add fresh vegetables and herbs, omelets are a fantastic choice for breakfast. While this herbed Spanish omelet recipe only features potatoes, garlic, and some herbs, that is all this simple dish needs to make it a tasty hit."

"1 pound potatoes, peeled and diced or shredded water 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1/2 cup diced red onion 2 cloves garlic, minced 4 large whole eggs, lightly beaten 2 egg whites, lightly beaten 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives salt, to taste (optional) fresh herb sprigs, for garnish (optional)"

A herbed Spanish omelet uses potatoes, garlic, red onion, eggs, egg whites, and a mix of fresh parsley, basil, and chives to serve four. Potatoes are boiled briefly, drained, and then sautéed with onion and garlic in olive oil until tender and aromatic. Whisked whole eggs and egg whites are combined with chopped herbs and salt, then poured over the cooked potatoes and gently cooked until the bottom is golden, about ten minutes. The top can be browned under a toaster oven and the omelet garnished with fresh herb sprigs. Per serving: 260 calories.
