Ingredients:

• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1 green bell pepper, diced
• 1 zucchini, diced
• 8 large eggs
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:

• Peel and thinly slice the potatoes.
• Finely chop the onion.
• Dice the red and green bell peppers and zucchini.

1. Cook the Potatoes:

• In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
• Add the sliced potatoes to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook until they are tender and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
• Once cooked, remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.

1. Sauté the Vegetables:

• In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
• Add the chopped onion, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and zucchini. Sauté until the vegetables are softened and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.

1. Mix the Eggs:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• If using, stir in the shredded cheese.

1. Combine and Cook:

• Reduce the heat to low and add the cooked potatoes back to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables.
• Pour the egg mixture evenly over the potatoes and vegetables.
• Cover the skillet and cook on low heat until the eggs are set and fully cooked, about 10-12 minutes.

1. Serve:

• Carefully slide the potato omelet onto a serving plate.
• Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
• Slice into wedges and serve hot.
