About Denver scramble

The Denver Scramble is a classic American breakfast dish inspired by the flavors of the Denver omelet. It features fluffy scrambled eggs cooked with diced ham, vibrant green bell peppers, onions, and often shredded cheddar cheese for added richness. Sometimes mushrooms or tomatoes are included for extra veggie goodness. Commonly served alongside toast or hash browns, this dish is a satisfying and protein-packed way to start the day. Its origins are rooted in diners and home kitchens across the U.S., where the simplicity of mixing meat, eggs, and vegetables proved timeless. The Denver Scramble can be high in sodium due to ham and cheese, so opting for low-sodium ingredients can make it a healthier choice. Loaded with protein and essential nutrients like vitamin C from bell peppers, it balances indulgence with nourishment, appealing to both flavor seekers and health-conscious eaters alike.
