Ingredients

• 3 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 pound red potatoes (scrubbed and diced)
• 12 eggs
• 0.25 cup water
• 1 yellow onion (medium, finely diced)
• 3 clove garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 6 ounce cooked ham (diced)
• 14.5 ounce diced tomatoes (drained)
• 1 pint cherry tomatoes (halved)
• 0.5 cup Kalamata olives (halved)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)

Instructions

1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced red potatoes and cook for 15-18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender and browned. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from skillet and set aside.
2. While potatoes cook, in a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, water or dairy-free milk, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
3. In the same skillet (no need to clean), add 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Sauté finely diced yellow onion and minced garlic for 3 minutes until softened.
4. Stir in dried oregano, diced cooked ham, and drained diced tomatoes. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
5. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let set for about 30 seconds, then gently scramble with a spatula until cooked through but still moist, about 3-5 minutes.
6. In a small bowl, combine halved cherry tomatoes, halved Kalamata olives, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and lemon juice. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
7. Serve the oregano and garlic eggs immediately with the pan-fried potatoes and the cherry tomato and olive salad on the side.
