Recipe Description
Denver omelets are perfect for that weekend breakfast. Although we make these delectable treats during the week as well. Peppers, onions, ham and cheese. Simple tastes that meld together perfectly….like Abbott & Costello. If you are a young-in, I am sure you are shaking your head right now thinking who in the heck is she talking about? Now doesn’t that look yummy. Now where in world did the Denver omelet get it’s name and originate from. Well everyone has lots of different answers and ideas but the one that makes the most sense is that the cowboys would cook these out on the range while rustling cattle and horses. It is also referred to as the “Western Omelet.” It is a wonderful combination of flavors and quite easy to make in a pinch. So treat yourself and the whole cattle range if you are up to it!
