inverted ham + cheese omelette

i enjoy going out to brunch on sunday mornings. but in the event that i stay in, i'd still like to enjoy a restaurant-quality breakfast. 

i do most of my grocery shopping over the weekend. while in the store, i tend to be pretty optimistic that i'll eat a week's worth of food. however, dinners out and forgotten bagged lunches often leave me with a significant assortment of meats, cheeses, and produce nearing the point of ruin by sunday morning: all of which become prime candidates for my sunday-morning omelette. 

this week i had some deli-ham and smoked gouda cheese that had to be eaten.

inverted ham + cheese omelette

2 green onions

1 tablespoon horseradish

1 tablespoon dijon mustard

1-2 tablespoons milk or cream

3 eggs

3 slices of deli ham

smoked gouda cheese

whisk the horseradish, dijon, cream, and eggs until frothy. in a hot buttered pan, add the green onions and saute briefly. add the eggs, and flip after cooked on one side. remove from the pan and wrap the omelette in ham. top with gouda and brown the ham + cheese under a broiler. 

breakfast potatoes

1/2 small red onion

2 small red potatoes

parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon old bay seasoning

parsley

cut the potatoes into french-fry-like pieces. boil in salted water until tender. in a pan, saute onions in butter before adding the cooked potatoes. add salt, pepper, and old-bay. cover and let cook without flipping until potatoes have browned on one side. mix in parsley and parmesan.
