This is a classic 5-Ingredient Spanish Omelette. Made of 5 simple ingredients like golden potatoes, cage-free eggs, ripe tomatoes, onion, fresh parsley, and of coarse salt and pepper.
This breakfast skillet dish is super filling, really delicious, and it is perfect for Sunday brunch.
I am a huge potato lover, and would eat anything that has potato like potato hash, fried potato, or potato pie. My hubby on other hand is not like me, and to tell you the truth he is not a big fan of this dish, so whenever I crave something starchy and make Spanish Omelette for breakfast, I make sure to add some kind of meat like ham or bacon, extra bacon. That is the only way my hubby enjoys this dish for breakfast. I don't blame this guy, caus men want meat in everything they eat. Right ladies?!?

What adjustments need to be made if not using a cast iron skillet? Thanks!
Hi Rebecca! That is a good question. There are no adjustments required to make this omelette in different skillet.
Why no mention of the tomatoes that appear in every photo?
Thank you so much Sally for taking your time to write me, and letting me know that I forgot to mention about tomatoes that appear in every photo, I appreciate it. I will make sure to change that.
