About Western omelet

The Western Omelet, also known as a Denver Omelet, is a classic dish originating from American cuisine. Typically made with eggs, diced ham, onions, green bell peppers, and occasionally cheese, this savory concoction is a popular choice for breakfast or brunch. Packed with protein from the eggs and ham, it provides energy and supports muscle repair, while the vegetables contribute essential vitamins and fiber. However, its health profile varies based on preparation—adding excessive cheese or cooking with high amounts of butter can increase saturated fat and calorie content. Traditionally paired with toast or hash browns, it can be adapted for a lighter option by reducing salt, choosing lean ham, or serving alongside fresh fruit. Versatile and satisfying, the Western Omelet offers a delicious balance of flavors with potential for healthier adjustments to suit dietary preferences.
