Ingredients

5 eggs
2 cups potatoes — cooked
1 onion — finely chopped
1 green pepper — minced

12 green olives — sliced
4 ounces lean ham — cubed

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350º. Peel and cube cooked potatoes. Beat eggs until fluffy, fold in remaining ingredients. Spray a round nonstick cake pan with cooking spray. Spoon in omelet mixture. Bake 25-30 minutes or until eggs are set. Cut into wedges to serve

5 eggs
2/3 cup milk
1/3 cup Triple Sec
Finely grated zest of 1 orange
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
8 thick slices of day-old bread, better if slightly stale
Maple syrup
Fresh berries
Butter

1 Beat eggs and milk together. Add the Triple Sec, orange zest, and cinnamon. Whisk until well blended. Pour into a shallow bowl.

2 Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing bread to soak up some of the mixture. Melt some butter (or use vegetable oil) over a skillet on medium high heat. Add as many slices of bread onto the skillet as will fit at a time. Fry until brown on both sides, flipping the bread when necessary.

3 Serve hot with butter, maple syrup, and fresh berries.
