Oven Baked Denver Omelet

Adapted: Allrecipes

Here is a Naomi Blackburn fun fact...I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE breakfast for dinner. We do it in our house about twice a month. Usually, it is some type of eggs partnered with a breakfast meat and pancakes or waffles. I can do some serious chowin' on that stuff.

The typical fried or scrambled eggs get pretty dang boring, so when I saw this recipe on Allrecipes AND I had everything needed, I was on it. I was not disappointed. We went through a pan in one night. It tasted just like a Denver omelet without the hassle of it. Best yet....easy peasy!

So, here we go!: 

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons butter
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
1 cup chopped cooked ham
8 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions: 
1) Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch round baking dish.
2)  Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion and bell pepper until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in ham and continue cooking until heated through, 5 minutes more.
3) Beat eggs and milk in a large bowl. Stir in Cheddar cheese and ham mixture; season with salt and black pepper. Pour mixture into prepared baking dish.
4) Bake in preheated oven until eggs are browned and puffy, about 25 minutes.
