Breakfast July 4










Our morning drinks of choice are coffee (Marcus) and tea (Kim). Since this is a daily occurence, I won't list this each day but here's what we drink: "Ko'oko'olau Herbal Tea's 100% Hawaiian Green Tea". Their website is http://www.hawaiianherbalteas.com/ and I purchase it at Abundant Life. The coffee is "Island Naturals Hilo & Pahoa 100% Hawaiian Coffee" (purchased at Island Naturals).


Tortilla Espanola (Potato Omelette, Spanish Style)




1 lb sweet potatoes (BI, I used yellow)
2 or 3 Cloves garlic -- chopped (couldn't find BI)
1 large or 2 small sweet onions (I used Maui - couldn't find local)
6 Eggs -- beaten and seasoned with salt/pepper (Big Island Poultry, purchased from Abundant Life)

(You shouldn't need any oil if you use a well seasoned cast iron skillet, but if not add a teaspoon or so of coconut oil for sauteeing the onions/garlic/potato) (Island Harvest Organic, purchased at Island Naturals)

Slice onions and potatoes. In cast iron skillet, saute onions and garlic till they begin to soften. Add potatoes and cook until they are soft. Pour eggs over potato mixture. Bake 15 minutes at 350F and then start testing. When the middle is set and the top slightly brown, its done. Let set 5 minutes, run a knife around the outside and invert onto a round platter. (I made a double batch so that we could have this for tomorrow's breakfast)
