Denver or Western sandwich


The history of this sandwich varies as to it’s origin but in all cases dates back to early 1900.

This was a favorite sandwich that my Mom used to make for us.  She would scramble the eggs and add chopped ham, along with chopped onions and green peppers.  This beautifully browned omelet she would flip in half and then pile on two slices of toasted bread to make a sandwich.  This was a delicious hot sandwich that was quick and easy to make.

I prepared sandwiches for my husband and son to take with them for lunch at Sunshine Village.  I did cheat and added grated tre formaggi and finely diced jalapeno peppers to the mix.
