Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

1/4 cup milk or cream

1/2 cup diced ham

1/2 cup diced green bell pepper

1/2 cup diced onion

1/2 cup diced tomatoes (fresh or canned, drained)

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

2 tablespoons olive oil or butter

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh chives or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. Dice the ham, bell pepper, onion, and tomatoes. This makes the cooking process smoother.

    Whisk the Eggs: In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk or cream. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.

      Sauté the Veggies: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil or butter over medium heat. Add the diced onions and bell peppers, sautéing them for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.

        Add Ham and Tomatoes: Once the veggies are soft, add the diced ham and tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, letting everything combine and heat through.

          Add the Eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the sautéed ingredients. Allow the eggs to sit undisturbed for a minute until they just start to set around the edges.

            Scramble Gently: Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, folding them over the other ingredients. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are fully cooked but still moist. This should take about 3-4 minutes.

              Incorporate the Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the eggs during the final moments of cooking. Stir gently to combine until the cheese melts.

                Serve: Once done, remove the skillet from heat. Serve hot, garnished with chopped chives or parsley if desired. Enjoy your fluffy Denver Omelet Scrambled Eggs with toast or your favorite sides!
