I love omelets, but I don't like making them. That's why I make these "oven omelets" all the time. This recipe made two "pies" and about six servings. We let them cool to room temperature, and took them to the park for a picnic.
We just ate them with our hands like pizza :D
The other end of this park has a playground and a rose garden. I took some photos of the roses at twilight, one of my favorite times of day for pictures.
To see all of the photos I took this evening, Click Here, to go to my family blog :D
And now for the recipe!
Lightly grease two pie dishes. Thinly slice one large or two small sweet potato, and arrange it around the bottom of the pie dishes, like this:
Sprinkle the sweet potato crust with sea salt and pepper.
Pour omelet mixture over top.
Pour omelet mixture over top.
Omelet mixture:
8 whisked eggs
1.5 tsp Herbamare seasoning
1 finely chopped sauteed onion
1 finely chopped sauteed red pepper
2 cloves minced sauteed garlic
2 cups lightly steamed, thinly sliced broccoli
1 cup sliced Applegate Farms, Chicken & Maple, Breakfast Sausage*
1/2 cup Daiya or other dairy-free cheese
1/2 cup finely chopped sundried tomatoes
Bake at 350 for about 40 minutes.
*I like Applegate Farms, Chicken & Maple, Breakfast Sausage because it's gluten and casein free and it doesn't contain MSG or nitrates. Plus the chickens are treated humanely and without antibiotics.

dang, I wish I could do eggs!!!
I am definitely making these for breakfast tomorrow! I love that there is a sweet potato crust - great idea!
I'm thinking this might make an interesting base for your pumpkin pie as well. I mean, why not? So simple too.
LOL! I use the same thing...sweet potato crust... for my egg dishes! Makes the difference for my boys!
I love the look of yours with all the veggies on top! Beautiful!
I like the whole "pizza-esque" omelete idea! I definitely want to try this - it looks delicious!
This is seriously the best thing I've come across in a while! I know what we will be having for Sunday dinner. I love sweet potatoes and my kids love them along w broccolie and eggs! Perfect! thank you so much!

That is ingenious!!!!
Thank you all! =)
Gwen, Of course. That would be great! =)
I made this for breakfast this morning (minus the peppers and tomatoes) and it turned out great. The best part is that this was Hubby Approved. Thanks for the recipe!
Oh my this is the prettiest omelet ever! I can't eat eggs like this myself but I gthink I'll give this a shot for my boyfriend to take cold to work this week. Thanks for sharing, and your kids are so beautiful!
Take care,

what a great idea!
This sounds delish!!
Sunday breakfast for sure!!! Thank you for such a great idea!
Made this last night for dinner with kale instead of broccoli. So tasty! My husband loved it too (and asked for more!)
I'm so glad, Lori! We love it too. Maybe I'll make it tonight actually :-)
Oh yum! Love the sweet potato crust idea.
Oh yum, this sounds wonderful. I would skip the sausage but I bet it would be just as good without! I'm glad you can do eggs right now... Yay!

This.looks.amazing.
Can this be done without the sweet potato "crust"? I believe it would be better as is...but some people in this household cannot do potatoes.
Thanky you!
(Lovely pictures by the way)
Oh yum! I think I'm going to do this tomorrow!
I am just now starting to go Paleo, and made this as one of my first dinners for my kids! It was a huge hit! They absolutely loved it! Thank you so much!
So amazing! I made this for an office brunch and everyone said it was the best quiche they ever had! I subbed in 2 slices of turkey bacon instead of the sausage and didnt have sundried totmatoes so dropped some pesto drops on top. It was bomb!!! Will DEF make again!
