Baked Denver Omelet The Denver sandwich is a western favorite - a toasted sandwich made with a fried egg filling containing ham, onions, and peppers. We couldn't find it on any restaurant menus here in "the east" until we discovered that it was called a western sandwich here. Well, here is the Denver/Western sandwiches cousin - the Denver Omelet. A breakfast dish made easy because it is baked - no watching and turning required. It doesn't have to be just for breakfast, this also makes a nice quick dinner. Ingredients: 2 tablespoons butter 1/2 cup chopped onion 1/2 cup chopped green pepper 1 cup chopped cooked ham 8 eggs 1/3 cup milk 1 cup grated cheddar cheese Salt and pepper Directions:Melt butter in a small skillet. Add onion and green pepper, cook until softened but not browned. Remove from heat, add ham. Set aside. In a bowl beat eggs and milk until light and fluffy. Stir in the ham mixture and 1/2 cup of the cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into a greased 9 inch square or 10 inch round baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese over top. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
