Breakfast Omelets with Hash Browns – Prep time – 5 – 10minutes/Cook time – 10 minutes

(Breakfast is so cheap to make…a dozen eggs is around $1,any questions?!?)

 

This could be the episode that saves the most money foreveryone…I mean, even if you have 6 people to feed, a dozen eggs takes care ofthat for you fooooor, around a buck! Compared to eating out, where the minimumyou’ll pay for the simplest of breakfasts is $5/plate, BEFORE TAX ANDTIP…you’ll have a hard time justifying eating B-fast again “out on the town”.
