I got the original recipe from Weight Watchers. I'm always looking for recipes that fit into my diet plan that my DD and DH will also eat. This is good. If you are counting points, it's only 3 points per serving.

A good, light recipe. We felt like it was missing some spices but other than that we enjoyed it eaten with salsa. I liked how quick & easy it was & that it was all staple items. I cut the recipe down for two of us & used 4 whole eggs. Thanks for sharing, Dreamer! Made for ZWT 5 - Ali Baba's Babes.

    a yummy omelet. I did make the mistake of scaling it down but used a HUGE potato so my picture doesn't look very "omelety" or even fritattay. the taste was great though!

    I sauteed the onions, potatoes and garlic in a large pan with olive oil. Sprayed and oil on a pie dish. Placed the cooked potato mixture in the pie dish and topped with the egg mixture which I added fresh chives and parsley. Baked in a 350 oven for minutes. I opted for this method because the amount of potatoes and eggs make it hard to flip this making it very easy and prettier. I rated this 5 stars for flavor but more so because of the Nutrition Facts.

    This was very good. I made it for dinner the other night and the whole family loved it. My kids ate it with ketchup and I ate it with salsa. I did have a hard time flipping it and ended up cutting it in fours and flipping it that way, but it turned out very good. Thanks for posting!
