What is a Denver Omelet?
The taste of this omelet is AMAZING and makes for a delicious breakfast recipe (it’s right up there with our breakfast eggs and potatoes and scrambled eggs recipes). It’s fluffy, and moist, and packed with delicious ingredients. This omelet is super fluffy because it’s baked in a 10 inch baking dish. This makes the egg and other ingredients cook perfectly and evenly together in the oven. It’s also healthy, filling, and also are great for serving a crowd or bringing to a brunch with friends.
