Baked Denver Omelet



This was the first time I have ever baked an omelet and it came out great!  This baked up nice and fluffy. It's sort of like a quiche but without the crust.  





Here's what you will need:  eggs, ham, green pepper, onions, milk and shredded cheese.



Cook the chopped green pepper, onion and ham in butter until peppers and onions are tender.



Stir together the eggs, milk and cheese and then combine together with the ham mixture.




Spray a 10 inch pie plate with non-stick spray and pour mixture into it.  Bake for 25 minutes at 400 degrees.
Serve while still warm.
