Ingredients

2 small red potatoes

1 tablespoon margarine, plus more for omelet pan

1 tablespoon butter

3 slices bacon

Sprinkle granulated garlic

1/4 cup yellow onion, diced

Salt and pepper

1/2 cup portobello mushrooms, diced

3 eggs

2 to 3 tablespoons sour cream

1/2 cup tomatoes, diced

2 to 3 tablespoons feta cheese crumbles

Directions

  1. Boil red potatoes to 90 percent cooked and cool in the refrigerator until cold. When potatoes are cold, cut into medium sized chunks and saute in 1 tablespoon of margarine and 1 tablespoon of butter. When the potatoes are almost finished sauteing, begin to cook the bacon until crispy and cut into small pieces. Set aside. Just before the potatoes are browned, sprinkle garlic, onions, salt and pepper onto the potatoes. Drain off excess oil. Set aside. Saute mushrooms. Set aside. Whip 3 eggs together.
  2. Grease a 10-inch omelet pan with margarine over a medium heat. Have all other ingredients ready to assemble quickly after the eggs are cooked. Put the eggs in a pan and cook slowly over medium heat. With a spatula, push the eggs to the center of the pan. Remember that this is an open omelet so do not fold over. As the eggs begin to seal on the bottom, keep folding the loose eggs under the cooked portion. When almost all the loose egg is cooked, flip the eggs over. Lay the cooked eggs flat on a plate. Spread with sour cream, and then place potatoes on the eggs, followed with mushrooms, tomatoes and bacon. Top with feta cheese.

I also ate at Brother Junipers in MEmphis, TN.. I travel to Memphis for business at least 3 times a year staying for a full week. I eat at Brother Junipers EVERYDAY I'm in town. I ordered the San Diegan onlete because Rachel Ray said it was awesome although I cant stand RR I ordered it anyways. It was AMAZING and so was the cheesy grits. Whats funny is that I literally typed the recipe down in my phone as I was eating it and then I found it here on FNdotcom! I just compared my notes and it was almost exact. I'd like to add that their is also scallions sprinkled on top and you can substitute the bacon or just add finely ground chorizo as I order it. there is also shredded cheddar cheese on top.
