IHOP Colorado Omlette
This is a great meaty omelet. This simply filled with all sorts of meats. You can substitute deli roast beef in a bind.
1/4 C. Diced Bell Pepper
1/4 C. Diced Tomatoes (optional)
1/4 C. Diced Cooked Lean Ham
3/4 C. Finely Shredded Cheddar Cheese (reserve 1/4 cup for garnish)
1/4 C. Diced Lean Bacon (fried and drained)
1/3 C. Sliced Small Breakfast Sausage Links (fry and drain)
1/3 C. Shredded Roast Beef or Dice Roasted Beef From the Deli
3 – 4 Eggs Beaten (measuring one cup)
1/8 C Water
1/4 tsp. Salt
1 Tbsp. Butter
In a sauce pan on medium low heat melt butter and add onions and bell peppers. Stir until onions and pepper are soft but not browned. Add diced ham and stir until the ham is limp and heated through. Immediately remove from heat and set a side.
In a mixing bowl add eggs, water and salt beat and stir well. Set aside.
Heat a 12″ fry pan on medium low heat, add a little oil (1 tsp.) or spray with a non stick vegetable spray. A non stick pan works great. Place egg mixture in pan and sprinkle with onions, bell pepper, ham, tomato if you wish, sausage, bacon, and 1/2 of the roast beef, and 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese. Place a lid on until omelet starts to set. Immediately remove lid and fold omelet from the sides to the middle. If this is difficult fold in half. sprinkle with the rest of cheese and roast beef.
Serve with a side order of Picante Sauce
or Sour Cream with a little diced green onion.

If you want to know the secret on how IHOP makes such great fluffy omelettes… They add buttermilk pancake batter to the eggs and make a seperate omelette batter. 1gallon of eggs with 1 pint of pancake batter, or for a single 3 egg omelette, about 2 table spoons. Mix throughly and make a very fluffy omelette.
