Breakfast Veggie Omelette

Breakfastwtmrkd550

Did you know that in the United States the average American family of four will toss out $1600 dollars worth of groceries every year?  A great way to curb the food waste in your home is to create great tasting dishes with any leftovers you might have.  For this recipe, I used some dinner leftovers — vegetables (sauteed spinach and onion) and roasted sweet potatoes.  I put the spinach and onions into the center of my breakfast omelette, adding a bit of feta cheese for extra taste.  I served the dish with warmed leftover roasted sweet potatoes as a side. The result was a simply memorable and yummy breakfast!
