Potato Oven Omelet by Wendy

I've made this one before at this time last year and thought it would  be great to have on hand.  Use it the morning of Black Friday so they don't have to worry about breakfast while you're out or use it when company comes in town or when you go out of town for Thanksgiving.  Since it is frozen it travels well.  Please reply to the original post:  http://freezerfriendz.blogspot.com/2009/12/potato-oven-omelet.html .
