I think egg bakes are one of the best inventions in the world. You can grab whatever you have in your fridge, toss it in the casserole dish with those delicious eggs, and be done with it. I mean, the bell pepper/onion/ham/cheese combo is delicious, and a great way to use up leftover ham too, but almost anything works well in an egg bake. Now, did you know this?
The Denver Omelette started as a sandwich.
Yup. It was basically the same combination of ingredients but served in between two slices of bread, and eaten on the go. Eventually, people started ordering it for breakfast and it was served as an omelette. The origination of the Denver sandwich is still a bit unknown. Some say that Chinese rail workers started it by putting egg foo young on bread. Others say that Chefs would try to disguise the taste of rotting eggs with meat and vegetables. (I like the first theory better. Let’s go with that.)
Alright, that’s enough, our history lesson has concluded. I do enjoy how easy this egg bake is, and the fact that it only takes 30 minutes from beginning to end. That’s pretty slick. Especially if you’re serving this for a group of hungry people. You don’t want people getting hangry on you now. By the way, speaking of breakfast, I think these French toast sausage roll-ups might be my favorite breakfast creation ever.
