eggs

🥗Healthier: egg whites

💰Cheaper: egg substitutes

Egg whites reduce cholesterol while maintaining protein.

onion

🥗Healthier: leeks

💰Cheaper: scallions

Leeks provide a milder flavor and are often more affordable.

potatoes

🥗Healthier: sweet potatoes

💰Cheaper: frozen hash browns

Sweet potatoes add nutrients, while frozen options save prep time.

Heat a lot of olive oil in a large cast iron skillet.

Add 4 pounds of potatoes to the skillet and cook until tender, stirring occasionally.

Add caramelized onion to the potatoes for extra flavor.

Whisk together 10 eggs in a bowl and season with salt and black pepper.

Combine the cooked potatoes and onions with the eggs, mixing gently.

Return the mixture to the cast iron skillet and cook over medium heat, working it like a large omelet.

Cook until the bottom is set and golden.

Check the tortilla to ensure it tastes good and is cooked through.

Serve the tortilla with romesco sauce and seasoned heirloom tomatoes.
