This recipe was sent to us by Virgina in NYC. Here we have one of her favorite breakfast dishes which was inspired by leftover potatoes from the night before. A Spanish omelet or tortilla. In Spain you will find this dish served in tapas cafes. It is served hot or cold and enjoyed for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
