Bauernfrühstück

Farmer's Breakfast - omelet with bacon, onions, potatoes


Ingredients:
 
6 slices bacon
1 tablespoon butter
1 onion, chopped
4 potatoes, cooked and finely diced
6 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup milk


Directions:

 In a frying pan, fry the bacon until crisp. Remove and drain on paper towel. Remove the bacon fat from the frying pan, add the butter and saute' the onion until soft. Add the potatoes and brown lightly. Beat the eggs lightly and add the salt, pepper and milk, and finally the chopped bacon. Pour the egg mixture over the onions and potatoes and stir occasionally until cooked.



Notes: We would often have Farmer’s Breakfast for lunch.  Mom usually made it with ham instead of bacon.  It is actually a meal that can be modified to incorporate leftovers, so it is a little different every time it is prepared.
