    1 medium-sized potato, skin on, thinly sliced
    2 cups (500 mL) broccoli florets, chopped
    2 cups (500 mL) baby spinach
    10 eggs
    1 tsp (5 mL) dried oregano leaves
    Sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste
    1 tsp (5 mL) extra-virgin olive oil
    1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
    1/3 cup (80 mL) feta cheese, crumbled

    Place potato in large, nonstick frying pan with an ovenproof handle and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then simmer until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add broccoli and cook until bright green and tender-crisp, about 2 minutes.

    Place spinach in a colander. Drain potatoes and broccoli in colander.

    Preheat broiler. Whisk eggs with oregano and season with salt and pepper.

    Heat oil in frying pan and set over medium-high heat. Add onion and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Pour in eggs and add potato, broccoli, and spinach. Using a spatula, stir a few times to evenly distribute vegetables. Cook, without stirring, until eggs are well set around edges, about 2 minutes.

    Sprinkle with cheese; broil until eggs are set and cheese melts and starts to brown, 4 to 6 minutes.

    Cut into wedges and serve.

    Potato Gnocchi, Nutmeg Spinach Sauce, and Orach Salad

    Gnocchi are easily made deliciously chewy dumplings that are part mashed potato, part pasta.  They’re particularly tasty simply browned and crisped in butter. Tender spinach is puréed into a bright green sauce scented with fragrant nutmeg. Orach is an ancient vegetable with a savory mineral flavor like spinach and chard. Its microgreens and tender leaves pair beautifully with earthy potatoes.
