Found this on Delish this morning and it is from Country Living Magazine. Sounds great - for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner or as the Spansih would do - as a Tapa or appetizer. Yummy! The Spanish word tortilla -- which refers to a dish that bears no relation to the Mexican tortilla -- comes from the Latin word torte, meaning "round cake.
