Servings: 4 Preparation Time: 5 Minutes Cooking Time: 25 Minutes

• 1 pound (about 3 medium) russet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 2 green onions, chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon each salt, paprika and Italian herb seasoning
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Slice potatoes 1/16-inch thick. In 12-inch nonstick skillet heat oil over medium heat. Spread potatoes in skillet in an even layer. Cook, turning occasionally, until browned, crisp and cooked through, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in small bowl whisk remaining ingredients except cheese. Pour egg mixture evenly over potatoes.
