Leftovers - Don't throw them out - Make a Frittata

I have posted Frittata before but made one this morning
and thought I should remind people how quick and easy it is
Put it your Waste not Want not category
I had some leftover vege,
I have a guest and like to offer him nourishing food for breakfast
In fact there was enough for 4 breakfasts, accompanied by some Crispy Vogels Toast
Freezing some of it for another day

I do love to add potato, must be fried though... for the wonderful flavour
Grab some eggs from the fridge
I used 3 Cherry tomatoes
The leftover leeks and peas
A handful of grated cheese

To make enough for 4 breakfasts
3 medium potatoes peeled and chunked
A cup of cooked of vege
3 Cherry tomatoes cut in half, push the seeds out and slice
5 eggs beaten
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup grated tasty cheese
3-4 tablespoons of Olive oil 

Heat oven to 180C
Pre cook the potatoes
Easiest way
3 minutes in the microwave
Drain

In an ovenproof skillet over medium heat
Add olive oil
throw in the potatoes
Let them cook till a nice crust forms
Season with a little S & P
In a bowl add eggs
Beat and season with S & P
Add cooked vege, tomatoes and grated cheese
Pour egg mix into the potatoes
Get the omelet started a little on the stove
Into the oven approx 8 minutes
Remove
Cool a little
Voila
Breakfast
