Potato and Cheese Fritata

This is a good breakfast food for filling bottomless pits when your on a budget. Derek and I have it with an orange or grapes on the side.

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large russet potatoes peeled and shredded
1 medium onion, dicedsalt and pepper (to taste)
1/2 shredded cheddar cheese (we use 1 cup of fiesta mix cheese instead)
4 eggs beaten

Preheat oven to 400 degrees heat oil in 12 inch skillet over medium high heat when it's hot, add potatoes and fry until they are crispy and golden (about 15 minutes) reduce heat a little and add onions. Cook, stirring until onions are softened. Season with salt and pepper, and pour eggs over the top. place skillet in the oven for about 10 minutes (or eggs are firm). Remove from oven, sprinkle cheese on, and return to oven until cheese is melted (about 5 minutes)
