All family members liked this. I served as a light lunch. I didn't have the potatoes o'brien, so I used shredded frozen hash browns and added chopped onion, and used leftover Easter ham. Great flavor and very easy.
Ham and Potato Omelet
Great for any meal, this Italian dish is quick to prepare. Serve with fruit salad and toast for breakfast, or sautéed Swiss chard and garlic bread for later in the day. Use chicken in place of ham, if you prefer.
