What is a Denver Omelet?
There isn’t much difference between a Denver omelet vs a western omelette; they are basically one and the same! If you order one at a restaurant, the terms are almost interchangeable, but most restaurants offer many variations on the fillings. The fillings in this recipe include bell peppers, ham, and onions (and of course cheese)! Omelets are so easy to make and so versatile! You can add any and all veggies and meats you like!
Ingredients/Variations
EGGS This recipe uses 3 large eggs for 1 omelet. If you want a slightly smaller omelet, use 2 eggs instead (or just egg whites if you’re watching calories)! FILLINGS Diced ham, onion, red, and green bell peppers are all added but the sky is the limit! Try adding mushrooms, bacon, tomatoes, or even spinach if you have some on hand! CHEESE Sharp cheddar is best as it has great flavor.

Can an Omelette Be Reheated?
Cooked egg dishes can easily be reheated.
For microwave, place omelet on a plate and cover with a paper towel or microwave cover. Microwave for 1-2 minutes until heated through. For stovetop, place the portion in a small pan and add a little water. Heat, covered, until the omelette has absorbed the steam and is fluffy again.
